Summary

Bull Market Turns 3: Can It Keep Going? and the Truth About Feeling Financially “Set” We’ve hit the three-year mark of this bull market — stocks are up, dividends are strong, and history tells us there could still be room to run. But what happens next? Wes Moss breaks down the data and explains what history says about how long bull markets typically last — and why patience and balance matter most right now. Also, Wes explores what it really means to be financially “set” — and why that doesn’t always mean being settled. Whether you have $100,000 or $10 million, peace of mind comes from having a plan — and revisiting it often. Plus, Christa shares your #AskWes questions and Wes gives his take. All this and more on the October 14, 2025, Ask an Advisor episode of the Clark Howard podcast. Submit your questions at clark.com/ask. We hope you enjoy our weekly Ask An Advisor episodes, in which Christa and Wes discuss investing and retirement savings in depth. Let us know what you think in the comments!

really complements what Clark does on the Clark Howard show. And the questions are complex.

0:27.7

And that's a good thing. Some of them, you have to almost truncate because they're long and

0:31.7

pretty detailed. But we continue to get amazing questions and hopefully it continues to be helpful.

So I know later on in the show you're going to talk about,

0:41.1

you mentioned earlier to me a client that you had that had a lot of money,

0:45.4

but it was so nervous that they don't have enough.

0:48.1

Like when can someone feel settled?

0:49.3

It's this concept of set but not settled.
