Can you feel it? There’s panic in the streets! We’re in the middle of a stock market crash and the hysteria is starting again. As I write this, the S&P 500 is down six percent today — and 17.3% off its record high of 3386.15 on February 19th.
Media outlets everywhere are sharing panicked headlines.
All over the TV and internet, other financial reporters are filing similar stories. And why not? This stuff sells. It’s the financial equivalent of the old reporter’s adage: “If it bleeds, it leads.”
Here’s the top story at USA Today at this very moment:
But here’s the thing: To succeed at investing, you have to pull yourself away from the financial news. You have to ignore it. All it’ll do is make you crazy.

Ever been to Noma in Denmark? Me neither, although I did some solo bicycling there, which is so much more reliable than flying domestically this morning with the FAAâs system shut down. Apparently I have only two years to go, as the âbest restaurant in the worldâ surprisingly announced it is closing in the winter of 2024. Cynics would say that is a publicity stunt, proponents will tell you that it is time for a change and the numbers probably donât make sense. (Speaking of numbers, this monthâs STRATMOR blog is titled, âProductivity: More Important than Everâ and discusses how important it is to manage to the numbers, and not be surprised.)

Todayâs podcast is sponsored by SimpleNexus, an nCino company and award-winning developer of mobile-first technology for the modern mortgage lender. Todayâs has an interview with SimpleNexusâ Lori Brewer on the advances of APIs and native integrations.
