    The Lifecycle of Greed and Fear

    The Lifecycle of Greed and Fear

    All greed starts with an innocent idea: that you are right, deserve to be right, and are owed something for the efforts you put into establishing your beliefs and opinions. 

    It’s a reasonable feeling. But it sets off a chain reaction that leads to an inevitable boom-and-bust cycle. 

    This episode explores one of the most important topics in investing: the lifecycle of greed and fear, and why it cannot, and will not, ever go away. 

    The Year of the Value Hunter Has Arrived

    The Year of the Value Hunter Has Arrived

    For a fund manager with a belief in value, 2021 was as discombobulating a year as they come, says Ben Inker, co-head of GMO’s asset allocation team. Valuations went to insane levels across all markets, and there was nothing you could buy or hold that was cheap enough to offer real long-term returns. But the good news according to Inker is that an awful lot of froth came out of the market last year. Prices went down and inflation went up. Add those together and a lot of markets were down 25% plus in real terms, he says.

    Inker joins Merryn Somerset Webb on this week’s Merryn Talks Money  to explain that, for the first time in several years, it’s possible to find assets with “compelling valuations.” There could be more nastiness to come in the most expensive markets, he warns, but the opportunity set going into 2023 is far better than it was a year ago. 

    Plus, John Stepek and Merryn discuss was she calls one of the best books she's ever read.

    Undisclosed: Fire And Flood Risk In The United States

    Undisclosed: Fire And Flood Risk In The United States
    There have been many climate-related disasters this year, and along with those events come a heavy emotional and financial toll for residents. But what NPR climate reporters Rebecca Hersher and Lauren Sommer have found is that most people don't realize their wildfire or flood risk — and that's putting millions in harm's way.

    Additional Resources:
    - Read Lauren and Rebecca's series, Climate Risk Hits Home.
    - Reach out to us if you've tried to get information about the risk of floods or wildfires when moving to a new home.

    Lauren and Rebecca are both on Twitter. You can follow them @lesommer and @rhersher to keep up with the latest climate news. We're always all ears for your climate inquiries and musings — email us at shortwave@npr.org.

    TPP328: The investments you must avoid in the coming property boom

    TPP328: The investments you must avoid in the coming property boom

    This week on The Property Podcast, The Robs are discussing the investments you should be avoiding in the upcoming property boom. 

    No, they’re not psychic. Nor do they have a crystal ball. But the property boom will come, and when it does, it’s important to know the potential risks and how to avoid them. 

    If you’ve been listening to the podcast for a while, you’ll know that Rob & Rob believe we’re currently in the mid-cycle wobble, and after the wobble comes the boom. 

    Quite often in a boom, people start to get excited and you could be sold something that could lose you a vast amount of money.

    The perk of the property cycle is that you know what’s coming next. So you can look at the last property boom and see what type of investments people were making that went horribly wrong... and avoid them. 

    So what are the investments you should be avoiding in the next boom?

    1. Overseas property
    2. No money down (NMD)/highly leveraged
    3. Investments that cost you to own it
    4. (Always) student pods and hotel rooms
    5. Parcels of land

    There are a lot of issues and warnings in this episode but it’s not just us scaremongering, you genuinely need to be aware of these issues and take them seriously. 

    If you’ve had a bad past experience with one of these investment types or you were affected by the last property boom, then we want to hear from you. Get in touch over on Facebook, Instagram or even the forum.

    And in the news this week, The Robs have found another headline that isn’t actually news - it’s more misleading.

    It comes from the BBC and the headline is ‘flats out of fashion with first time buyers’. According to the article, first time buyers are going straight for houses which is causing a fall in the cost of apartments. 

    So that’s it. Investors should stop what they’re doing and we need to go back and revise the podcast we did on city living. 

    Wrong. 

    Yet again, the media is blowing a simple comment made about the London market completely out of proportion. One comment about one city and naturally that means it’s the same story for the rest of the country. 

    Our Hub Extra this week is for MacBook and iPhone users, sorry Android. It’s an app called Soulver, and it’s essentially the same as the notepad app but it’s designed to work with numbers in a more natural way. 

    It’s incredibly useful if you’re trying to take notes and make calculations at the same time. Give it a try and let us know what you think.

    Meetups are next week! Some events are sold out but we do have some tickets left for others. Although they’re selling fast. If you’d like to attend, you can find your nearest meetup venue here on our website

    If you haven’t yet checked out our YouTube channel then what are you waiting for? One of our most popular videos is our UK hotspots one and people have been questioning our choices. So go give it a watch and let us know your thoughts. Don’t forget to subscribe!
