    A dream come true bankofamerica x Stock Pickers Academy My first investment banking speaking gig. I worked on trading floors for 12 years and not once did I hear anyone talk about stocks and shares ISAs or alternative property strategies. A common misconception is that if you work in banking and finance then financial literacy is a given. The reality is so many people working in corporate life just buy a home, pay bills and book holidays. It’s amazing how many misconceptions exist about stocks investing too! You don’t know what you don’t know - £850/mth into the S&P500 for 25 years ‘passively’ can make you a tax free millionaire! Mindset has a big part to play 73% of people don’t feel confident managing their finances. Only 7% of people in the UK have a stocks ISA (up from 3% in 2019). If capital gains taxes rise to 39% stocks isas will become more important as many in property will start shifting towards it. One of the biggest contributors to mental health is financial stress so this topic is extremely important to wellness. We also discussed Financial wellness is finally becoming more of a topic of conversation and I have many clients who work in the city who have put my name forward to drive the conversation and educate. I love what I do as an investing coach - education comes before advice. I explain why you need a financial advisor and help you find one, I educate on products and strategies and I also give you access to my community of like minded individuals trying to make better decisions with their money. Thank you to Ijeoma Ogbechie, EMBA and the team! Also thanks to my fellow panellists Tony Ofori (who I worked with at Goldman Sachs)Topsy Taiwo (Who I knew from his property videos) and Trudi Edington I have now spoken or run workshops at a range of institutions including PwC, Amazon, Capco, Octopus Investments, Rothschild & Co, Total Jobs and I hope to do many more so please do feel free to reach out to your employers and let’s make this happen 🙏🏾 Linktr.ee/stockpickers - services and free videos

    💭 Transparency builds trust. Most of my career has been being the go to guy when investments have gone wrong. ✅️ I posted this reel on instagram in February and subtly you see the buy alert for Paypal at $58 (35% up) and that's where I bought. I wrote a clean long term investing plan for it too. You can only lead by putting your neck on the line and be an example. My track record over the past 9 years has been great - I have always been transparent with my strategy and my investments but only with people in my whatsapp group. However, by being in the group I created I have learnt alot and was introduced to crypto, property strategies, angel investing and more. 🤝🏾 Being able to see what other people are investing in and why has been eye opening. Alot of people are wowed by my Portfolio Doctor sessions where I help people problem solve through their bad decisions and most people have turned their losses into profit. 💰 Investing is about survival first. In ⚽️ we say "Defence wins you titles". I stop people making bad decisions, I teach people how to think, I teach them strategy, I give them accountabilit, I give them confidence and I explain things to them in a simple language they understand! 🫡 I turned pain into purpose with Stock Pickers Academy I learned the hard way so you don't have to. Join the tribe Linktr.ee/stockpickers the eCourse teaches strategy, the whatsapp and watchlist lets you know what I am looking at and prices I feel are highly cautious entries to be used with the strategy you learn on the course in a stocks and shares ISA. It's not investing advice 🙌🏾 #SPArtans #stockmarket #investing #coachdebs #coach #entrepreneur #business

Their significance lies in providing a comprehensive suite of services beyond traditional financial management. These services include: ● Business development ● Estate planning ● Wealth management ● Philanthropic activities ● Lifestyle management ● Insurance Family offices offer a holistic approach, ensuring that all aspects of a family's wealth are seamlessly coordinated. 1. Risk Management and Wealth Preservation One of the key benefits of a family office is risk management. They isolate financial risks within specific investments or projects, protecting the family's overall wealth. This structured approach helps mitigate potential losses and ensures long-term capital preservation across generations. By focusing on long-term wealth preservation, family offices look beyond short-term gains and structure investments to maintain wealth over time, allowing families to pass down a lasting legacy to future generations. 2. Personalised Financial Planning Family offices stand apart from traditional financial advisors by offering bespoke solutions tailored to the unique needs and goals of each family. These solutions align with the family’s values and long-term objectives, ensuring wealth is managed according to their preferences. Additionally, family offices are pivotal in educating younger generations on financial literacy, investment strategies, and wealth management responsibilities. This not only prepares the next generation but also fosters a strong sense of stewardship. 3. A Comprehensive and Secure Approach In summary, family offices provide a comprehensive, personalised, and secure method of wealth management. Their services allow families to focus on their broader goals, while the family office handles the complexities of managing their wealth. Whether through risk management, education, or long-term wealth strategies, family offices ensure a family's financial future is well-preserved.

    Stock Market Update: Major Changes in the S&P 500 Breaking News: Palantir ($PLTR) Joins the S&P 500 Palantir has officially been added to the prestigious S&P 500 index. This milestone has caused a bullish reaction, with Palantir’s stock surging by 7.2% in after-hours trading. Investors are celebrating as Palantir's inclusion solidifies its position among America’s largest companies. Update: Palantir and Dell In, Etsy and American Airlines Out In addition to Palantir, Dell is also joining the S&P 500. However, as part of this rotation, Etsy and American Airlines will be removed from the index. The S&P 500 is known for its dynamic nature, constantly evolving to reflect the current market landscape. Companies that lose profitability and market value are replaced by those performing better, ensuring the index remains representative of the strongest firms. Fun Fact: Evolution of the S&P 500 The S&P 500 has changed considerably since its inception in 1957. Out of the original companies, only 86 remain on the list today. Despite the regular changes, the index has provided an impressive average annual return of 10.26% since its formation, making it a staple for long-term investors. Market Corrections Are Common The S&P 500 has experienced 36 corrections (defined as a 10% or more drop) since 1950. However, in 22 of those instances, the correction ended within 3.5 months. On average, the stock market undergoes a 10% drop every two years, but history shows these dips are often followed by recovery. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest market movements and investment insights!

    💡 #Financial Insights: The Rule of 25 Explained Understanding the Rule of 25 The #RuleOf25 is a simple yet powerful guideline to help you plan for retirement. It operates on the principle of a 4% withdrawal rate, commonly referred to as the 4% rule. Here's how it works: - 4% Withdrawal Rate: You can withdraw 4% of your invested net worth every year. - Sustainable Income: This allows you to live off your investments comfortably for the rest of your life. - Market Returns: Given that the stock market has historically returned 8-10% per year, this withdrawal rate gives you a cushion to handle inflation and market fluctuations. Calculating Your #Retirement Needs To determine how much you need to retire using the Rule of 25, follow these steps: 1. Calculate Annual Expenses: - Start by calculating your monthly expenses. - Multiply your monthly expenses by 12 to get your annual expenses. 2. Apply the Rule of 25: - Multiply your annual expenses by 25. - The result is the amount you'll need to invest to retire comfortably. This method provides a straightforward path to financial independence, ensuring that your retirement is secure and your lifestyle is sustainable.

    Market Collapse - The Japanese Yen Carry Trade A market-wide selloff has reverberated globally, with U.S. indexes experiencing a 3% decline and the crypto market cap plummeting by 11% in the past 48 hours. One key factor contributing to the downturn in global markets is the Bank of Japan (BoJ) raising interest rates and its impact on the prevalent investment strategy known as the carry trade. This strategy entails investors borrowing a currency with low interest rates, like the Japanese yen, and reinvesting the borrowed funds in a currency offering higher interest rates, such as the U.S. dollar (USD). For years, investors have leveraged this strategy by borrowing yen at minimal interest rates, approximately 0.4%, and converting it to higher-yielding currencies like the USD. However, the recent increase in BoJ interest rates from 0-0.1% to around 0.25% has made Japanese yen carry trading less appealing. Consequently, many investors are unwinding their positions, causing the yen to strengthen against the USD, with the USD/JPY currency pair hitting its lowest level since 2023. The unwinding of yen carry trades is leading to margin calls and the subsequent sale of underlying assets, exerting pressure on global markets. The era of easily accessible yen loans is nearing its end. What implications does this have for crypto markets? Cryptocurrencies remain riskier than U.S. equities, and downturns in traditional markets typically result in more substantial declines in crypto markets. With mounting challenges such as high unemployment rates, persistent inflation, geopolitical uncertainties, and the repercussions of the unwinding of yen carry trades, we may anticipate turbulence in the near future.
