Kenny Polcari - 9/11 and the NYSE
"The fear was that the New York Stock Exchange was next, because when you think about America and you think about developed nations and developed markets, the New York Stock Exchange is a symbol. If nothing else, it's a symbol of America. It's a symbol of freedom. It's a symbol of capitalism. It's a symbol of the free world. Because if somebody really wanted to make a statement, I mean, they made a statement, but had they flown a plane into the Exchange, they would have brought this country and really the global financial markets to a standstill."THIS EPISODE CONTAINS GRAPHIC DESCRIPTIONS OF THE EVENTS OF 9/11 THAT SOME LISTENERS MAY FIND DISTRESSINGStocks for Beginners is for information and educational purposes only.

Mario Payne - Letbob.com | Making investing fun and simple
My guest today helped to found the first African American owned AI ETF on the New York Stock Exchange.The median net worth for Black households is currently $24K, compared to $188K for white households, according to McKinsey and Company. This massive wealth disparity reflects a long history of racism, including lack of access to education, financial services, and barriers to ownership. Mario Payne believes that technology can be used to fix structural problems that have plagued the Black community for hundreds of years. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform financial services and equity ownership. Mario made history in February 2022. The company he co-owns, launched the first African American owned AI ETF on the New York Stock Exchange. The symbol is LETB. The goal of this fund is to limit investment losses while maximizing gains.

David Maurice Sharp - Investing Creatively
There's an old cliché about the "starving" artist that may have a basis in reality, but isn’t set in stone! My guest David Maurice Sharp joined me to discuss the tricky financial waters that come with following the artistic path. He's a financial educator that provides valuable advice for performing artists like actors, dancers, lighting gurus, costumers or stagehands on investing, saving and building a diversified and stable financial portfolio. While he writes specifically for artists who have fluctuating, uncertain and sometimes limited streams of income, he promotes an understanding of finances and the investment world that has lessons for anyone starting their financial education. David was a founding member and initiated the formation of the Thriving Artists Investment Club, a limited partnership established by a small group of artist/friends to educate one another about investing and personal portfolio management. Through that, he also gained greater insight into how the artist can best be educated about their finances and investing. For more than a decade, David has been teaching investment workshops at HB Studio, an acting conservatory in New York City. This has provided him with the invaluable opportunity to hone his ideas for educating artists in regard to their finances, and to enjoy the success experienced by those who have implemented the ideas and techniques that he promotes.In October 2014, David was named a “money hero” for his work in educating artists about their finances by Money magazine. He is the author of The Thriving Artist: Saving and Investing for Performers, Artists, and the Stage & Film Industries and a contributing author to A Life in Dance: A Practical Guide.Find out more at the blog post: https://www.stocksforbeginners.net/blog/sharpand: https://www.davidmauricesharp.com/Portfolio tracker Sharesight tracks your trades, shows your true performance, and saves you time and money at tax time.

David Keller - StockCharts.com | Controlling emotions with technical analysis
How can we judge whether fear or greed is prevailing in a stock, ETF or index? It's not something that is shown by studying company reports. Some say that fundamental analysis helps you to know what to buy and technical analysis tells you when to buy (or sell as the case may be). Technical analysis uses price and volume alone, and assumes that everything we need to know is embodied in the chart. These charts are used to help identify patterns and trends that may give signals of possible future price movements.David Keller, CMT is Chief Market Strategist at StockCharts.com, where he helps investors minimize behavioural biases through technical analysis. He is a frequent host on StockCharts TV, and he relates mindfulness techniques to investor decision-making in his blog, The Mindful Investor.Find out more at the blog post: https://www.stocksforbeginners.net/blog/kellerand: https://stockcharts.com/Portfolio tracker Sharesight tracks your trades, shows your true performance, and saves you time and money at tax time.
