Ever feel overwhelmed by the constant flood of market news and expert opinions?
In this episode of The Buddh-ish Investor Podcast, I explore why the stock market feels like drinking from a firehose – with billions of shares traded daily and endless commentary pulling us in every direction – and how Buddhist wisdom can help us find our focus.
What You’ll Learn:
Why our brains struggle with the 34 gigabytes of information bombarding us daily
How “papañca” (mental agitation) mirrors the market’s restless monkey mind
The research showing less active traders outperform by ~6.5% annually
Three anchors to keep you grounded: your investment plan, financial goals, and evidence-based research
Why the NYSE opening bell can become your daily reminder to refocus
Using the concept of the monkey mind swinging from vine to vine, discover how meditation principles can help you ignore market noise and stick to what actually builds wealth.
Perfect for: Investors struggling with information overload and anyone tempted to overtrade in response to daily market movements.
