[ AJO Podcast ] How to Invest During Market Chaos (From a Top 100 Advisor)
The stock market crashed in March, but now it’s back to all-time highs. You might have sat frozen, waiting for a recovery or a better buying opportunity. Chances are, you didn’t make any moves that made you richer. Was that a mistake? During “trendless” markets like these—where price swings feel random and directionless—most Americans sit on the sidelines. Others, like Adam Koós, one of Investopedia’s Top-100 Most Influential Financial Advisors in the U.S., made money in the peaks, valleys, and in between.
Adam has the technical trading knowledge that 99.9% of investors (and even advisors) lack. His full-time job is identifying trends, capitalizing on them, and moving more money into his all-star roster of investments. He’s sharing his actual investment strategy today (piece-by-piece!)—so you can apply the same principles to your own portfolio. Plus, he even provides his five-year forecast and an optimistic view on interest rates.

[ SSI Podcast ] Self Storage Demand 101: Know WHAT to Buy (Full Guide)
So, you’re about to buy your first or next self storage facility—how do you measure demand before you buy? How do you tell what nearby facilities are charging and how full they are, and whether they’re even your competition? Today, we’re giving you a complete guide to self storage demand.
We’ll teach you how to measure your local demand and even predict future demand so you don’t buy in a declining market. Plus, who is the “ideal customer” for your storage facility? Other units in the area may not serve them, allowing you to fill a gap in the market. This is crucial for self storage investing, and we’ve already made the mistakes, so you don’t have to.

[ Youtube Short ] The Real Cost of Globalization on America’s Future
Globalization was supposed to make everyone richer. Instead, it hollowed out America’s middle class, outsourced our production, and left us with debt, stagnant wages, and broken supply chains. In this video, I break down how decades of bad policy and corporate short-term thinking shifted America from a nation of producers to a nation of consumers — and why that’s a dangerous place to be.
Hope you enjoy the new content.
That's it for this week - until next time!
