It's Victoria Devine of course VD, welcome back 25 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 3: from Europe. 26 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: Good to have you, Gosh, thank you. I love that. 27 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: Just before this episode, we're having a chat and you 28 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: were like, what is a bear market? Like, how does 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 1: it work? Why is it called a bear market? What 30 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: does that mean? I'm like, it's legitimately a bear, the 31 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 1: animal bear like a bear, and then the bull market 32 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: is legitimately the bull How many people just didn't know 33 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: that and they were like, Oh, I must be this 34 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: complex investing term. It's not. It's real cute. 35 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: And that's what we're going to break down today. I 36 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 3: feel like the most sensible place to start is that 37 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 3: the start with the basics. What is a bear market? 38 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: That is a smart place to start at, George. But 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: before we get there, let's just have a chat about 40 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: investing markets as a whole. And I think we've seen 41 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: it in the She's on the Money community a lot recently, right, 42 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: like last six months, since Christmas, even before Christmas, right, 43 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: We've seen so many posts in the community. We're talking 44 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: about the Facebook community here about you know, oh my gosh, 45 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 1: my spaceship accounts down, or someone's like, oh my gosh, 46 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: my rais is down, or I was looking at my 47 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: portfolio and I'm still behind. And there's just been this 48 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: consistent piece of conversation around our investments as a whole 49 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: not doing well. And I think it started with like, 50 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, is it spaceship and we're like, no, 51 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: it's not the platform, it's the market as a whole, 52 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: and we have been going in this direction down. Bear 53 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 1: market spoiler is when the market decreases in value. We'll 54 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: get to that in a hot second. But if we 55 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: look at the community and we look at the markets 56 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: as a whole, I feel like we've all been really 57 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: concerned about it and we haven't really known what's going on. 58 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: And obviously there's lots of implications. There's been war and 59 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: COVID and you know, after the bushfire, has so much 60 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: happened in Australia but also in the wider world, and 61 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: it now makes sense to be talking about it. Not 62 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: that we haven't been this entire time, but we're currently 63 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: or now officially in what is known as bear market George. 64 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,839 Speaker 1: A bear market, to define it really quickly, is when 65 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: the market falls by twenty percent or more from its 66 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: fifty two week high. So many people say that it 67 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: is typically a sign of negative investor sentiment, which kind 68 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: of makes sense, like we're all feeling a little bit apprehensive, 69 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: we're more likely to, you know, stockpile some cash under 70 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: the mattress because of the tumultuous times that might be ahead, 71 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: especially after what we've been through. But essentially, a bear 72 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: market is where people are selling shares, getting rid of things, 73 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: stocking away their cash in their mattress, and hibernating for 74 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: the winter, which is where I mean, there's a lot 75 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: of hearsay around where bear came from, but we're going 76 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: to define it as we're hibernating. So a bear hibernates cute, right, sure. 77 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: The opposite bull market. You're not following yet, are you? No? 78 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 3: No, I'm picking up little bits. 79 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,039 Speaker 1: The opposite is a bull market, and a bull as 80 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: an animal really aggressive, like you see them with the flags. 81 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: They'll go ya. But that is where the value of 82 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: the market has risen by a minimum of twenty percent 83 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,239 Speaker 1: from the previous fifty two week high. So a bull 84 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: is buying shares and like charging at the market, and 85 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: a bear is kind of like stockpiling their acorns. Bears 86 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: eat acorns, no, but they do hibernate for the winter, 87 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: So lave it there? Does that make sense? Are you 88 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: following me? Now? 89 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 3: I feel like bear. It's also like kind of a 90 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 3: double meaning, like bear market means like people, there's barely 91 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 3: anyone there. It's a bear people are treating it's fair. 92 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 3: It works, you know, I'm not always silly. 93 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: What's the sentient on ball? Don't need one, don't mean. 94 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 3: One, don't know that's it? You said a fish there before, 95 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: Victoria Devine. So has this happened very recently, because I 96 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 3: have heard it has, but I haven't. 97 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: Been happy in June at my love. So as of 98 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: mid June, we officially made it into a bear market, 99 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: which means that the market has now officially fallen by 100 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: twenty percent, which sounds really scary and it absolutely shouldn't be. 101 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: At the same time as like, it is a good 102 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: time to review your investment strategy. It is a good 103 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: time to think about money, but it's also a good 104 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: time to And this is a quote that I have 105 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: seen all over the internet recently, purely because obviously the 106 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: markets have gone down. But when in doubt, zoom out, 107 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: so like when you're in doubt, obviously it feels really scary, 108 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: but we have been through so many market changes over time. 109 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: Like if we now look at a chart that shows us, 110 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, investment performance over time, those blips that we 111 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: see on a market chart look really small now, but 112 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: then you look and go, wow, hold on, zoom in. 113 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: That's the GFC in two thousand and eight, two thousand 114 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 1: and nine that now look like a very small bump. 115 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: It went down and then it's obviously recovered and gone back. 116 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: We're at one of those blips again. So it's going 117 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: to feel really dramatic because twenty percent nobody Like if 118 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: I said to you, ge, do you want to invest? 119 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: You go yeah, V then you lost twenty percent. You're 120 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: gonna be happy with me. 121 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 3: I'm want to be loving that. No, it's going to 122 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 3: be loving it. 123 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 1: But if I took you back to two thousand and 124 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: nine and was able to show you what the future 125 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: looked like and that the market would recover and it 126 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: will be okay, and you're actually well above and beyond 127 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: what you were before, you'd be like, no, I want 128 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: to hold on. But in the moment, it is really scary. 129 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: And that's why on Sheese on the Money, we talk 130 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: so significantly about behavior all investing people, often, especially in 131 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: a bear market, they go, oh my gosh, everybody else 132 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: is selling. The market's going down. I want to save 133 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: my money, like I don't want to lose any more. 134 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: So they often crystallize their losses and pull their money 135 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: out and they're like, no, no, no, I don't want to 136 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: lose more, when in reality that can actually harm you 137 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: because you're pulling money out while it's worthless instead of 138 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: just riding the wave and going no, I know that 139 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: this is how it works. We're going to ride that 140 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: wave and it will rebound at some point in the future. 141 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,239 Speaker 3: So what's happening right now? Why are we in a 142 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: bear market situation? 143 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: Oh, because bears are real cute and everyone's like, it's true, 144 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: let's switch. Well, not as cute as a bear, but no, 145 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: we're in a bear market right now, which is actually 146 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: called a correction. So the market's correcting our itself. It 147 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: was flying and going up, and remember there was just 148 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: like so many people, maybe like just pre COVID talking 149 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: about investing and being like, oh my god, investing, I'm 150 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: making so much money. Like everyone's gloating on shees on 151 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: the money, how much they're making their spaceship and their 152 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: raise accounts, and stuff. Remember that, and then they were 153 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: complaining about it because they're like, is it spaceship and 154 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: we need to remember that it's actually market driven, not 155 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: platform driven. If the underlying assets that your platform own 156 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: are you know, really reflective of the market. But essentially, 157 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: right now we're going through a market correction which has 158 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: been going on for a while now, and it's actually 159 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: due to one inflation, which we're hearing a lot about 160 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: at the moment. It's due to the ongoing impacts of 161 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: Russia's invasion into Ukraine, which is still terrifying, still baffles 162 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: me in twenty twenty two that that is what's going 163 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: on and the implications of that on global trade. So 164 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: obviously those things are really significant, but that is from 165 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: what all the economists are saying, is what is driving 166 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: current downturn in the market. And when you say that, 167 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: ve is this an Australian situation or is it GLO 168 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: global situation? It is global situation. So it's not something 169 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: where it's like, oh my god, it'sh Australian shares. No, 170 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: this is across the board. So a couple of weeks ago, 171 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: the inflation numbers out of the US came through and 172 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: everyone was really scared, but they were higher than expected, 173 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: and we know this because we've been talking about it 174 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: in the community. But essentially it hit a four decade 175 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: high in the US in Australia of eight point six percent, 176 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: So inflation in the US is now at a level 177 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: that has not been seen since December nineteen eighty one. 178 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: So it makes sense that we're a bit like, what 179 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: is going on? This is really scary. So we've seen 180 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: a lot and here in Australia, the Reserve Bank actually 181 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: early June, I believe it was like the seventh of June, 182 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: an announcement came out that the Reserve Bank had the 183 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: single biggest rise in the cash rate in twenty two years, 184 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: which is again scary. And Australia's Central Bank tried to 185 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: quash inflation before it got out of control, and the 186 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: RBA board, they have a regular monthly meeting, they lifted 187 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: the cash rate fifty basis points, so it went up 188 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: to zero point eight five And if you follow us 189 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: on Instagram, we posted about that and that was much 190 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: higher than what everybody expected. But essentially that happened because 191 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: we wanted to quash inflation, like it's not going to 192 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: stop it, but it's just stopping it impacting you as significantly. 193 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: And then closely following that, we got the announcement that 194 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: Albow had increased the minimum wage, which is obviously a 195 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: really good thing, but I do think that was really 196 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: driven by the fact that inflation is so significant right now. 197 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: If you're a She's on the Money regular, Hi, thanks 198 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: for listening. But also you've heard Jess and I and 199 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: George talk for weeks on the Friday Drinks episodes about 200 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: like fuel prices and how expensive things are, Like this 201 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: is impacting not just investors but everyday people who are 202 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: just trying to get to work and put food on 203 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: the table. So I think it's important to look at 204 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: what a bear market means, whether you're an investor or not. 205 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: It's not just like, oh, if you're a serious investor, 206 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: the bear market's really important to understand, No, it's not. 207 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: It's important to understand if you're an individual who uses money, 208 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: full stop, end of story, because inflation in the US 209 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: has you know, obviously been wild and not been seen 210 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: that high since December nineteen eighty one, Like that's crazy 211 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: to think that we're back there, and that's obviously then 212 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: sent the stock market further into a bit of a 213 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: bit of a panic. You're a bit worried. So I 214 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: think it's really important to understand that our governments are 215 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: doing a lot to try and curb this and put 216 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,319 Speaker 1: us in a position where it doesn't impact the everyday 217 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: person as much. But if you're an investor, you're going 218 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: to feel this pretty significantly in your share portfolio. And 219 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: as an investor myself, it is not that fun logging 220 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: into my share portfolio. As you guys know, I'm a 221 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: pretty aggressive investor. It's down pretty significantly. I don't like 222 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: seeing that. Just because I run cheese on the money 223 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: doesn't mean I'm immune to feeling sick when I look 224 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: at my investment. But like I can't tell you you 225 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: never get over that. But what you do do is 226 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: you educate yourself and you're like, no, Victoria, you can't 227 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: sell your asset. Stop doing that, Stop thinking like that, 228 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: and go back to the advice you give everybody else. Yeah, 229 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: still easier to give advice than he needs to take it. 230 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 3: George, Well, that's the thing. It sounds to be, frank 231 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 3: quite scary. My mind is going, well, bear market, stressful times, recession, 232 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 3: that's like the line that I'm drawing, is that fair? Like? 233 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 3: Are we heading down that? Or is it not as 234 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: dark as that? 235 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: No, it is absolutely as dark as that. I absolutely 236 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: go to see a recession coming, and it's because the 237 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: market's in a way gotten away from us and it 238 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: needs to readjust. It does mean that we need to 239 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: be quite careful with our spending. I don't want to 240 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: scare people. We actually need to. I guess talk about 241 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: here market corrections and what that means, and a lot 242 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: of economists are predicting it, and we will probably do 243 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: an entire podcast on a recession and what that means 244 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: and how that works. But we are young, George, and 245 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: we're in that very privileged position where you know, if 246 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: you look at the risk return chart we have on 247 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: our side time and I've spoken to people in our 248 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: community who are sixteen and listening to the podcast. I've 249 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: spoken to people who are sixty six and listening to 250 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 1: the podcast, and we're all in different circumstances. To me, 251 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: if you are, you know, a millennial and you're an investor, 252 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: it is not anything that you need to jump up 253 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: and down about and really worry about unless you have 254 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: a very volatile employment situation, in which case I would 255 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: always recommend an emergency fund regardless of who you are 256 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: or what you do. But from my perspective, these types 257 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 1: of things really impact you if you're close to retirement, 258 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: where you know, a significant downturn in your investment portfolio 259 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: or your superannuation is going to mean that you're not 260 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: retiring within the timeframe that you want to. It could 261 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: also mean that, you know, George, let's say you own 262 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: a home and you're like, oh, v I wanted to 263 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: own the home for five years, but then a recession 264 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: hits and it's not worth as much as you wanted 265 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: it to be worth. So therefore your time frames on 266 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: your goals have changed, because we actually should push that 267 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: goal out because I don't want you losing money by 268 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: selling that property today and not getting what you needed 269 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: from it, if that makes sense. So a lot of 270 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: privilege plays into this as well, because during a recession, 271 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: a lot of people are forced to do a lot 272 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: of things that they wouldn't want to do, especially when 273 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: it comes to money, which is why I think it 274 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: is so important to go back to that emergency fund 275 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: piece and talk about what that means. But essentially all 276 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: of that in mind, and the fact that you know 277 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: inflation is so prevalent and such a big key point, 278 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: markets are now taking that into consideration. Hence the fall 279 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: like that has been very well timed, the fall in 280 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: the market with when inflation was announced in Australia internationally, Like, 281 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: that's what is driving that this time. And as much 282 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: as the economic news isn't great and it all sounds 283 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: really negative, let's flip this. Shares are on sale. Baby. 284 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 3: That's a good point. That's a nice spin that. 285 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: I love that. But prices falling means that we are 286 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: looking at having more attractive investment options if you're in 287 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: a position to invest, Like as an investor right now, 288 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the market going like okay, cool, Like 289 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: what are some things I might want to pick up 290 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: that are discounted that are going to be really solid 291 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: players in my investment portfolio for the long term. Like 292 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: it's really exciting. Like when you're out shopping and you 293 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: see twenty percent off, you get excited. But when we 294 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: see it in the share market, we we nearly wet 295 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: our pair. It's Georgia King. 296 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 3: And we usually say, don't get sucked into sales. 297 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: But on this occasion, not about all shy if you can, 298 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: but also be really smart and have an emergency fund, 299 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: because we all want to be safe. But it's important 300 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: to understand that this is not just one platform that's 301 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: going to be impacted. It's not just your Spaceship account 302 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: or your Raise account, like everybody across the market is 303 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: going to be impacted. I'm a direct investor, I'm impacted. 304 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: It's not something that you know people are going to 305 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: be immune from. But I think we need to go 306 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: back to behavioral investing and understand that the behavioral investing 307 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: chart has ebbs and flows, and Warren Buffett said it 308 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: best be greedy when people are fearful, and be fearful 309 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: when people are greedy. And that goes back to if 310 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: the market's really high and people are really excited. Remember 311 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: Bitcoin when everyone was like super stoked on it, and 312 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: every man and his dog was buying a bitcoin. Not 313 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: that you can buy a single bitcoin because that is 314 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: now worthwait much, but they were buying parts of bitcoin 315 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: and then it crashed and then everybody was really worried. 316 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: Like that's the emotional rollercoaster that is investment, that is 317 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: the investing journey. And I think We need to just 318 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: be super aware of what that means and how that works, 319 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: because we can get carried away and we can crystallize losses. 320 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: Like how many people in the She's on the Money 321 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: community have we seen George message us going, oh my god, 322 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: my spaceship portfolio was down, so I just sold all 323 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: my shares or I got rid of it. And I'm like, 324 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. Like I feel mean saying this, But 325 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: have I taught you, sir? Like I feel like a 326 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: mum at the dinner table, Like I remember way back when, right, 327 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: I was like at the dinner table with my dad, 328 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: have no idea what I was talking about, but I 329 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: was like, Dad, there's this great thing I did XYZN. 330 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: He just looked at me and he's like, are you joking? 331 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: And I was like, Dad, I'm really excited, Like why 332 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: aren't you sharing my excitement for this? Obviously very independent 333 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: in discovery, he is, I have been telling you that 334 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 1: for months. 335 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: Hang on, are you talking about investing? 336 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: No, it's interesting in general, no idea, but like I 337 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: thought i'd discovered it for the first time. I was 338 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: not listening to my dad. I feel like that's my 339 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: community today. 340 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 3: Sure, I guess what I kind of wanted to bring 341 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 3: up is that she's in the money. He's been alive 342 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 3: for three years. It was our third birthday last week. 343 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: Whild how cute do we? 344 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 3: And for a lot of us, this is our really 345 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 3: our first test into a real market downturn, and this 346 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 3: is kind of our challenge to take it upon ourselves 347 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 3: to be like, what have we learned over the past 348 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 3: three years? We hold on is that the message that 349 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 3: you would say to the girl. 350 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: Is absolutely and I think it's really important to remember 351 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: that it's actually about education, and the more educated you are, 352 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: the more comfortable you're going to be going through this. 353 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: And you know, not to call anybody out individually, but 354 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 1: if you have sold your shares because you've been really 355 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: concerned about the falling prices, I think now's the time 356 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 1: to go why did you make that decision, because usually 357 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: that decision has been made out of fear, and fear 358 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: comes from a lack of education. The more educated you 359 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: are about something, the less fearful you are of it, 360 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: because you're like, well, I know what that is. It 361 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what it is or how it works. Like 362 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: people who are super educated on ghosts. George not scared 363 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: of them me terrified. 364 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 3: I love this, but it. 365 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: Makes sense, right, Like the more you know about a 366 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: particular topic. Our producer is laughing at us. I don't 367 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: know if I can carry on. But the more you 368 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: know about a certain topic, the more comfortable you are 369 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,239 Speaker 1: with it when confronted with it. 370 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. 371 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: So I think it's really important to go if I'm 372 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 1: scared about making this decision anywhere in life, Let's be honest. 373 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: Maybe I just need a bit more education. Maybe I 374 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 1: need to read a blog. Maybe I need to read 375 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: a book, maybe I need to listen to the Shees 376 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: on the Money podcast. Like, it's not a bad thing. 377 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: I think we just need to talk about it and 378 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: what it actually means. And a bear market is not 379 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: something to be scared of. It just means that the 380 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: US stock price declined. It declined twenty two percent from January. 381 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: It peaked in January, and share prices have been bouncing 382 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: around for the last twelve months. And now we're seeing 383 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: a term being put on that. But we all kind 384 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: of saw this coming. We've been having this conversation. We've 385 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: seen it. I've said before on the podcast, Well, I 386 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,719 Speaker 1: feel like there might be a recession coming, like this 387 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: makes sense, and then economists are saying the same thing now, 388 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, this makes sense. I'm an educated investor, though, 389 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: and I want to be able to empower the rest 390 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: of the community with that education so that they have 391 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: that confidence to feel like, okay, cool, Like, let's reframe this. 392 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: Let's see this as an opportunity because I'm young, and 393 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: I can create wealth and I can do this, and 394 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: I can do that instead of going, oh my gosh, 395 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: everyone's talking about it being a terrible market, so your 396 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: shares are on sale. 397 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, listen to your sisters at Cheese on the money, 398 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 3: take it seriously, but zap out the emotion. Yeah, what 399 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 3: I mean? 400 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: Right, let's go to it. Right, let's do it. Let's 401 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: more bear market and bullmarket when we gave back fabulous. 402 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 3: Alrighty, guys, welcome back. Great to have you. 403 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: If you're still with us, do you reckon they're still 404 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: with us? We are about such dry content. No, it's dry, 405 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 1: but I think the way that you've explained it. 406 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 3: Is genuinely so interesting and engaging and as I. 407 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 1: Said, really cute. So why would you go anywhere? 408 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 3: Well, they are, but as I said, at the top 409 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 3: of the episode, like, I've heard this term, but I 410 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 3: haven't understood it. It's kind of hard to grasp when 411 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 3: you're reading it on a page. So it's really good 412 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 3: to have you explain it. So thank you so much. 413 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 3: The you mentioned earlier the term market correction, I did, 414 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 3: how does that differ from a bear market? What does 415 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 3: it mean? 416 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: I feel like I accidentally used those a little bit interchangeably, 417 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: and they're actually two different things. So corrections in bear 418 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: markets are both defined not defined, but they're both associated 419 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: with you could say, falling share markets, so falling prices 420 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: of shares. The difference between the two is, I guess 421 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: how big that fall is. So a correction or a 422 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: market correction is typically defined as a share market fall 423 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: of about ten percent, okay, so half of a bear market. 424 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: And as we said before, a bear market is when 425 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: we have a minimum of a twenty percent drop. And 426 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: so in the month of June twenty twenty two, we 427 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: saw the US stock price, so the SMP five hundred index, 428 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: which you can ask me in a hot second to 429 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: what that is entered officially bear market territory when we 430 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: had a twenty two percent decline from its peak in January, 431 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: so officially we're there, but a market correction is about 432 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,360 Speaker 1: ten percent, and then a bear market's twenty. 433 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 3: Okay, so it's yeah, bear market's worse. 434 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 1: That's good to know. 435 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 3: Here we are what you said just before SMP markets. 436 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: Oh, the SMP five hundred, which you've probably seen before 437 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: usually like in the really tiny text at the bottom 438 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: of the TV when you're watching the news at night, 439 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: and you would hear people being like in the SMP 440 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: index is up by it or it's down by You've 441 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: heard this before, right, Like that feels familiar. So the 442 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: SMP is actually called the Standard and Pause five hundred, 443 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: or simply put the SMP five hundred, and it is 444 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: a stock market index tracking the stock performance of five 445 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: hundred large companies that are listed on the US Exchange 446 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: in the United States, and it is one of the 447 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: most commonly followed indices, so it is one of the 448 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: most commonly used I guess measures of what's going on 449 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: in the market. So if you ever hear sm P 450 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: five hundred, it's actually not that complex. It's just the 451 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,959 Speaker 1: five hundred top companies that are used for us to 452 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: measure what's going on in the market. 453 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 3: Okay, makes sense, all right, sure for sure. 454 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: And as of today, George, if you google SMP five hundred, 455 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: I won't tell you what today's date is, but you 456 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: can work out what date we recorded by this number, 457 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: we are down eleven point six three percent, which is 458 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: point three percent today. 459 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 3: G So back to recession chats, love recession chats. The 460 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 3: word recession is terrifying. 461 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: It is, right, Why why do you feel feel like 462 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 1: that's terrifying? What are your attachments to that one? 463 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 3: So my mind goes to the global financial crisis over 464 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 3: in the US and visions of that for me, like 465 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 3: people losing their jobs, everyone's selling up, just a really 466 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 3: scary time. 467 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: Like great depression kind of vibes because that was also 468 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 1: a recession and. 469 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 3: People like losing their homes and all of these really 470 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 3: really serious things. And you just said before that like 471 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 3: a recession is coming, So how can we not be 472 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 3: afraid of that? Like is it as scary as that 473 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 3: picture I have in my head? Or is it not 474 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 3: going to be that bad? 475 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,959 Speaker 1: Look a recession? Honestly, it is really scary and it 476 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: can be really scary, and like, let's define it. But essentially, 477 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: a recession is a significant decline in economic activity that 478 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: lasts for months or even years. Obviously, the Great Depression 479 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: is a really good example of that. That was so significant. 480 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: I mean at the time, it wasn't called the Great Depression. 481 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: They named it after that happened, because you don't know 482 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 1: what you're in for with a recession, you don't know 483 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: how long it's going to play out for. Then the GFC, 484 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: which is the Global financial crisis, which we should do 485 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: an entire episode on I reckon. That would be from 486 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: a financial advisers perspective, Maybe we should go out to 487 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: the community and they even ask so they want this, 488 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 1: but like, what is the global financial crisis? Why are 489 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 1: people still talking about it? When it happened in two 490 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, two thousand and nine, What started it? 491 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 1: How did that work? But essentially, experts they declare a 492 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: recession when a nation's economy experiences negative gross domestic product GDP. 493 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: GD probably heard of that before, rising levels of unemployment, 494 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: falling retail sales, so people are shopping less and contracting 495 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: measures of income and manufacturing for an extended period of time, 496 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: which we I feel like we're starting to feel right 497 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: in the conversations we're having so lettus lettus, which is 498 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: twelve dollars lettuce, twelve dollar letters, petrol, petrol. All of 499 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: those things are indicators. 500 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 3: All of them. 501 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: All the lettuces and all of the petrols are indicators. 502 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: But they're genuine indicators of recession because we are in 503 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: a situation where our product and our ability to supply 504 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: product to the masses is not able to keep up 505 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: with demand, and so things become astronomically expensive and they 506 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: become really limited resources. And watching this happening is an 507 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,719 Speaker 1: indicator of recession. But you can also see how it 508 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: might start to happen when there's global war and looking 509 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 1: at what's going on in Russia invading Ukraine and how 510 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: that's impacted the ability of product to flow around the world, 511 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: and you see it in our industry right. Like, I'm 512 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: probably a little bit more privy to this at the 513 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: moment because as a lot of you know, I'm trying 514 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: to renovate my house and it is so expensive. I'm 515 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: talking to my build out and they're like, look, they 516 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: we're going to be up for a minimum of thirty 517 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: percent more because that's how much more product is worth now. 518 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 1: So like timber, not that everybody else knows what this is. 519 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: But timber prices have increased by a minimum of thirty percent. 520 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 1: So now for me to build a wall, it is 521 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: going to be thirty percent more. That is putting significant 522 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: pressure one on my budget, but on everybody else's budget. Like, 523 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: think about the building industry and how many contracts have 524 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: been signed to you know, build your metricron home that's 525 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: now costing them more. And there are these contracts where 526 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: they're like, great, I signed this contract. It's now going 527 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: to cost that business far more. That's going to significantly 528 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 1: impact that business negatively. So it's kind of like a 529 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: snowball and you pick up small things along the way, 530 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: and small things become big things, and that big thing 531 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: happens to be the recession. 532 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 3: So it sounds like it's basically a perfect storm. 533 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 2: Right. 534 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 3: We've had the bushfires to kick us off, then we 535 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 3: had two years of lockdowns, a pandemic that ended so 536 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 3: many lives and impacted so many lives around the world. Yep, 537 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 3: and now we have a war happening in Ukraine. 538 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 1: It's insane. Yeah, the world is insane. But essentially, and unfortunately, 539 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: recessions are considered a very unavoidable part of business. And 540 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: of the business cycle. As we mentioned before, we have 541 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: been through recessions before. We will come out the other side. 542 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, there are some negative things that are going 543 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: to come out of it, and people are going to 544 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: suffer through this because not everyone is going to get 545 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 1: away with it's got free. But essentially it's kind of 546 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: like the expansion and contraction of the market and working 547 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: out like if you grow too fast, your bubble's probably 548 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,360 Speaker 1: going to pop, and that's kind of what's happening here. 549 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 3: Well, just on a light note, like light when we 550 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 3: come out the other side, is it going to be 551 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 3: like the Flapper era popping on our dresses? It's going 552 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 3: to be great, said my mind's gone. It's going to 553 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 3: be good eventually. 554 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: Yes and no, Yes and no, shut me out. Sorry, sorry, 555 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: Georgia King. I don't think we are going to be 556 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: going into the flapper era again. 557 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 3: I'm going back. 558 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: Okay, Well I can go to the party. Actually, I've 559 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: recently moved into a rental property, as you guys know, 560 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: perfect to hold a flapper parties to it. Let's see 561 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: it there. It was my birthdate. We hate to haven't 562 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: had a proper party. We we'll get onto that. Really 563 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,479 Speaker 1: but when we're talking about timelines, I think it's important 564 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: to educate you on that. Did you know that the 565 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: average recession lasts eleven months? So if we look at 566 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: the average lengths of recessions from nineteen forty five until 567 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine cough that was when our last 568 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 1: one was, the average recession actually lasts about eleven months, 569 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: or let's call it a year. And that is kind 570 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: of scary because we're not talking about like, oh, gee, 571 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: it'll just be a couple of months. Like eleven months 572 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: is a long time, Like that is longer than just 573 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: making a baby. Is that a good measure of time? 574 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 3: Sure? 575 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: I feel like it's too masure of time. It's a 576 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: really good measure of time. I literally use the time 577 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: it takes to create human life as a measure of things. 578 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 3: It is quite good. 579 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: Like if someone says, oh, three months, I'm like, oh, 580 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: that's like baby is cooked. Yeah. Literally, if someone's like 581 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: ten months, I'm like, guys, that's so long you could 582 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: literally create human in that period of time. 583 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 3: Interesting, it's not as long as I thought, recession wise. 584 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 3: But you saying that a recession typically lasts for eleven months, 585 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 3: does that mean we can predict these kinds of things 586 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 3: if we understand that, like why can't we you know 587 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 3: what I'm saying. 588 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: Look uncertain. So given that economic forecasting is uncertain, like 589 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: I've said it before on the podcast, like, if I 590 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: could predict the shell markets, sir, I'd be rich and 591 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have to do this podcasts No. 592 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 3: I did do it anyway, because you love it. 593 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: I literally do. I did this when I wasn't being paid, 594 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: and now I'm being paid. I'm like, this is great, guys, 595 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: But no, you can't predict it in a really easy way, 596 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: in the same way you could predict when you're able 597 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: to see Mars in the sky. Right. But there are 598 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: a few things that were tell tale signs, and we've 599 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: spoken about them. Bushfires, coronavirus, war like, all of these 600 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: things add up to economists going there's probably gonna be 601 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: a recession at some point, but there are some indicators 602 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: or warning signs that can give you a little bit 603 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: more time to figure out how to plan for a 604 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: recession or when one is coming. So the first again 605 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: financial advisor had is being put on an inverted yield cycle. 606 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: So a yield cycle is a graph that essentially plots 607 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,959 Speaker 1: market value or the yield. So yield is essentially how 608 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: much money it makes. And when an economy is functioning normally, 609 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: yield should be higher on long term bonds and you know, 610 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: solid assets. But when long term yields are lower than 611 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: short term yields, so when long term cash coming in 612 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: is lower than short term cash coming in, it shows 613 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: investors are a little bit worried about recession. So it 614 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: means that they're you know, not putting so many eggs 615 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: in so many baskets. They're holding their cards a little 616 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: bit closer to their chests. And this is like quote, 617 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: a phenomenon known as a yield curve inversion. And as 618 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 1: a financial advisor, I obviously look at this and I go, okay, cool, 619 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: that makes sense. I read the textbook. But economists will 620 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: look at that and go, hey, this has been something 621 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: that has happened before every single recession that has ever happened. 622 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: The next is declining consumer confidence. So consumer confidence is 623 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: like how willing you are to buy stuff? Like right now? Gee, 624 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: if I said got and invest, you'd be like, ah, 625 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: but the market's down, like not sure if I want 626 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: to do that? And this is able to be measured 627 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: with consumer spending. So if surveys that are done on 628 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: you know, what Australians and what Americans are spending shows 629 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: us sustained dropping consumer confidence, it could be a sign 630 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: that we're going into some economic trouble. So essentially, people 631 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: are spending less because they're trying to save more money 632 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: because they're a little bit apprehensive of the future. Another 633 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: is a sudden stock market decline, so we have just 634 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: seen that and ours was a result of inflation. And 635 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: then the other is rising unemployment. And we mentioned this before, 636 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: but it essentially goes without saying that if people are 637 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: losing their jobs, it's a pretty bad sign for the economy. 638 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: Like that ain't a good thing. And just a few 639 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 1: months of pretty steep job losses is a pretty good 640 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: indicator that there is an imminent recession, because that is businesses. 641 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: It's not because people are not willing to work and 642 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: they're all going on holiday and not coming back. It's 643 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: because businesses are being a little bit more apprehensive and 644 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: they're less likely to hire. They might go, gee, like, 645 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: I know we want to expand, but maybe let's put 646 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: this off another quarter or another six months. So there's 647 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: less jobs in the job market in saying that that's 648 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: quite contradictory to the information that she's on the money's 649 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: been talking about about the great resignation, right, like everyone's 650 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: getting a new job and it's really great. But that 651 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: is actually a really entitled view because that's for educated people, 652 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: not for the workers that usually lose their jobs during 653 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: a recession. If that makes sense. 654 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So v back to the bear market situation 655 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 3: where we currently are existing. Is there a particular type 656 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 3: of stock that people are fearfull of buying that they're 657 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 3: pulling out, that they're losing faith in or is it 658 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 3: lost the board? 659 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't think people are losing faith in it, you 660 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: drama queen. 661 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 2: You. 662 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: I mean, this is some scary shit, but it's one 663 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: of those things where I don't think people are losing faith, 664 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: but they are less likely to buy things that are 665 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: not stockstanded. So this is where blue chip shares shine. 666 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: And I've spoken about it before, but essentially a blue 667 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 1: chip share is a share with a national or international 668 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: reputation of equality, reliability, and the ability to operate profitably 669 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: in good and bad times. And that's where people fall 670 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: back on industries that are going to stand the test 671 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: of time, Wollice Coals banks things that are essential for 672 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: the operation of our economy and less likely to invest 673 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: in things that are a little bit more frivolous. So 674 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: like people often end up pulling back on things like 675 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: tech where they're like, oh, I don't need that so much, 676 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: but I will invest in something that I know is 677 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: tried and true. In saying that, something that I think 678 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: you're going to find really interesting is the lipstick effect. 679 00:33:58,600 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: Have you heard of this before? 680 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 3: Uh? No, No, that was I was trying to think of. 681 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 3: I'm assuming it means like making something look glossier than 682 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 3: it is. 683 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 1: Oh that's cute. No, but it's not it at all. 684 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: But like, that's actually a really good analogy of it. 685 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: I thought you were going to be like the I 686 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: don't wear makeup, don't like lipstick, not gonna happen. Not wrong, 687 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: but it's quite interesting. So the lipstick effect is the 688 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: theory that when facing an economic crisis, consumers and people 689 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: are more likely to buy less costly luxury goods. So 690 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: instead of like buying designer bags and shoes and stuff like, 691 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: we're more likely to go and make ourselves feel better 692 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: with small purchases like lipstick. Interesting, and this is where 693 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: cosmetic companies thrive during a recession, which I probably bet 694 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: you didn't see coming. 695 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 3: So invest in Mecca is our advice today. 696 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,439 Speaker 1: I will absolutely be doing that today and every day. 697 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: In fact, low key, I'm a little bit salty. Lost 698 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: by level three. 699 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 3: I don't know what that means. 700 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: Okay, well, if you know, you know, Just to be super. 701 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 3: Clear there, don't invest in Mecca. Do it if you want, 702 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 3: but we're certainly not telling you to because this is 703 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:04,760 Speaker 3: not about financially. 704 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: I mean, invest in the products from Mecca. I'm sure 705 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: ten out of ten, kiss me stunning. 706 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 3: Back to it. We're about to wrap up, so I 707 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 3: want to You're going to rap fish, I'm gonna I'm 708 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 3: gonna start playing the Oscars music. I'm mean to end 709 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 3: it selfishly. How does this impact me personally? How does 710 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 3: it impact people community? What does this mean? 711 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I could be really dramatic and be like, 712 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: you're at risk of losing your job, not you, Georgia King, 713 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: because we will continue to make content forever. But unemployment 714 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: levels are rising, and I think that it is important 715 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: to be quite aware of that and quite aware of 716 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: your education and what you're doing in case that job 717 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: is not as sustainable or as stable as you might 718 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 1: think it is. So not only is our community feels 719 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: so bad, but not only is our community much more 720 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 1: likely to lose their current job, it's going to be 721 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: harder to find a job replacement since more people are 722 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: out of work and looking for a job at the 723 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 1: same time. So it's a very competitive environment to be 724 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: and if you're looking for a new role, So people 725 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 1: who are keeping their jobs, they might see no pay rises. 726 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 1: So as much as inflation's going up and we have 727 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: this expectation that our employers will meet that level of inflation, 728 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 1: they might not be able to afford to do so, 729 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: and it might make it harder for you to negotiate 730 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: further pay rises, which obviously actually's on the money. We're 731 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: always like, no, you're worth but also, let's read the room, 732 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: and let's see how hard it is for our actual community. Right, 733 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: So it's going to be really dependent on the type 734 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 1: of business that you're in. You might be thriving, you 735 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 1: might get a massive pay rise. In a lot of 736 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: industries that might not be as possible. Investments like shares 737 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: and bonds and real estate is probably going to be 738 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: valued less which could be a blessing or it could 739 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: be a curse. Like if that's your investment and you're 740 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 1: looking at it going, oh my gosh, my ship football. 741 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 1: It's worth so much less. Not a good thing. It 742 00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: will recover, It's okay, don't stress. But it also could 743 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 1: be a great opportunity if some people in our community 744 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: have been hustling and hustling to get their home deposit together. 745 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: And I'm hoping this is how it works out for 746 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: miss Jizicarucci. Property is going to be hopefully a little 747 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: bit cheaper, a little bit more affordable, a little bit 748 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: more accessible. Like I mean, surely everybody is seeing that coming. 749 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: Given avocados are what a dollar twenty at the supermarket. 750 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: Thing that I'm not that's true. If we can afford 751 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: avocados at that price, surely soon millennials will be taking 752 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: over the property market. So that is going to happen. Obviously, 753 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: when we see downturn in the share price, it means 754 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 1: that our retirement savings are going to look a little 755 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: less sexy. If you're in that situation where you are 756 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 1: planning for retirement, definitely speak to a financial advisor or 757 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: organize your financial affairs to be a little bit more stable. Unfortunately, 758 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: if you're in a situation where you know the prospect 759 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: of losing your job is real, it might make paying 760 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: bills really hard. It might make you know, keeping the 761 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: mortgage repayments up really challenging. And I think that that's 762 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: where to day and every day I'm a stauncher advocate 763 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: of an emergency fund, but I think now more than ever, 764 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: it's just really important to have that in your back pocket. 765 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: Or even if you're in the privileged position of being 766 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 1: able to beef it up a little bit more, I 767 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: absolutely would consider that because it's so important. As a 768 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: business owner. I know there are lots of business owners 769 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: in the Shees on the Money community because a little 770 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: while ago we did a census and twenty percent of 771 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: people said they were either a business owner or a 772 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: side hustler. Really really cool, and thankfully in Australia we 773 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:39,160 Speaker 1: are in again a very privileged country where during a 774 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: recession our government usually tries very hard to support small businesses. 775 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: But small businesses are more likely to feel the brunt 776 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: of it, purely because people are like spending less and 777 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,959 Speaker 1: small businesses are more likely to feel that because they're 778 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 1: already harder to access, right, I think understanding what a 779 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: bear market is and what preparing for a recession actually means. 780 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: But I think that all of the things that I'm 781 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: recommending are actually thinks we should be doing, regardless of 782 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 1: the economic situation, to put ourselves in the best possible 783 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: financial situation. So I don't want to end this on 784 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: a oh my gosh, everything's going up the wall, like 785 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: this isn't good at all, Like it is what it is. 786 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: We went through a market correction earlier this year when 787 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: it went down by ten percent. We're now at twenty 788 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 1: two percent, and it's been labeled a bear market. It's 789 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: not as scary as you think it is. The market 790 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: always recovers. If you are in doubt, zoom out and 791 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: have a look at the bigger picture and see what 792 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: every other market recovery has looked like and how long 793 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: that takes. But there is always light at the end 794 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: of the tunnel, and this is just how economics works perfectly. 795 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 3: Well, I'm feeling a little bit less frightened than I 796 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 3: was at the start, So thank you so much for 797 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 3: explaining it all, making it a little bit more understanding. 798 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: I've loved this chat.
