Stocks in Translation

In this episode of Stocks in Translation, Yahoo Finance markets and data editor Jared Blikre and producer Sydnee Fried reflect on some of our key conversations and look ahead to 2025.

First, we revisit our discussion with Joe Brusuelas, chief economist at RSM, who analyzed the post-pandemic economy. “The shutdown of global supply chains finally did what textbooks tell us recessions always do,” said Brusuelas. “It wiped the slates clean.”

Next, friend of the show, Callie Cox, chief market strategist at Ritholtz Wealth Management, returns to share practical advice for new investors, emphasizing diversification as an essential tool.

Raoul Pal, CEO and co-founder of Real Vision, explores the future of blockchain and delves into one of the great forces of the universe: compounding. Pal describes it as “the process where growth builds on previous growth and accelerates exponentially over time, whether it's money, knowledge, or resources, creating increasingly larger results.”

Finally, Kristina Hooper, Invesco's chief global market strategist, rounds out the “Best of the Episode” by breaking down the business cycle, market caps, and the role of central banks.

Twice a week, Stocks In Translation cuts through the market mayhem, noisy numbers, and hyperbole to give you the information you need to make the right trade for your portfolio.
