About this Episode

Join host John Berkley and the Uncommon Cents Investing committee for an in-depth look at today’s shifting financial landscape. This episode explores the mechanics and risks of pre- and post-market trading, the current market rotation from "Mag 7" growth to small-cap value stocks, and how global debt trends from China and Japan may impact interest rates. The team also breaks down the Value Added Tax (VAT) versus the U.S. tax system and discusses why historical context and strategic portfolio "tweaks" are essential for navigating market volatility.
