Summary
Risk in 2020 mattered for a moment when the stock market plunged in late February all the way down to its eventual bottom on March 23rd. But now it is a thing of the past as traders place bets and wager big that the stock market will go up forever. In a market that doesn't seem all that risky, why does managing the risk still matter? I go over this and more in this podcast episode.

| 0:31.9 | Market and the 101st episode on our way to 200 already right any case let's talk about why risk matters |
| 0:40.4 | because no one seems to care about risk anymore these days and a lot of that comes from last |
| 0:46.1 | year when you had your major brokerages going free on their commissions now why was that so |
| 0:51.8 | interesting it brought in a lot of new traders into the |
| 0:55.7 | stock market, people who had never traded before. But now, because they weren't paying $5 to trade, |
| 1:00.1 | or even a couple of years earlier, even as much as like $10 a trade, all of a sudden they're |
| 1:04.9 | trading for free. And it's like a free casino. It really is. And you've got things like Robin Hood |
| 1:09.7 | that's come about and become very popular. And it's caused this seismic shift in the brokerage industry where where there's no |
| 1:15.8 | entry to play anymore and that's a good thing it's good that trading is available at everybody but the |
| 1:20.4 | people who are most at risk of making bad decisions are the ones that are capitalizing on the free |
| 1:25.0 | commissions so you have a market environment that is |
| 1:29.3 | seen a lot of overtrading, people taking out credit cards, people taking out credit lines to fund |
| 1:34.8 | their gambling addictions. And then you throw that on top of this whole coronavirus epidemic, |
| 1:39.6 | where you have people that cannot gamble on sports anymore. What are they all of a sudden |
| 1:43.6 | doing? They're gambling on companies. They're getting their fix. Then you've got blowhards like David Portnoy, |
| 1:48.9 | who, by the way, no offense. I love his pizza reviews, but he's an idiot. He's an idiot when it |
| 1:54.3 | comes to the stock market. Now he looks great right now because the stock market just keeps going |
