In this video I discuss what will happen to the financial markets in 2025.
First though, it's helpful to revisit what was predicted in 2024. And then what actually happened in reality.
There was a big difference. Including the world's biggest bank getting their prediction wrong by an unbelievable 38%.
In fact, since I started investing back in 2017, I think there has been a 'big crash' predicted every year. Yet, the US and global stock markets are much, much higher than 2017.
You probably know where I am going with this, but it is impossible to know what will happen and it is impossible to time the market, as we discuss during this episode.
The best thing is to start investing and keep investing. It's impossible to predict what will happen from year to year, but by the market goes up slowly over the long term. And by investing you're giving your money the chance to beat inflation and compound.
Listen to the episode for the full details.
