Welcome to episode 304 of the Investing for Beginners Podcast! In today’s episode, Andrew and I will be discussing the September effect and other seemingly useless information that you might come across in the stock market. We’ll dive into what the September effect is, whether you should sell or buy stocks during that month, and why it’s important to ignore short-term noise when it comes to investing. We’ll also explore the concept of the Santa Claus rally and discuss the mindset shift that investors need to make in order to focus on long-term success rather than weekly returns. So join us as we debunk these market myths and provide insights on how to compound your wealth effectively. Let’s get started!
