Traditionally on The Miss Findependent Show, I talk about Index Funds and ETFs at length. I get it, these can get kind of boring, but if your portfolio is like a meal that you're cooking, the S&P 500 is like the (S)alt and (P)epper that's the base set of spices for most meals. Once you master how to work with the basics, you can start adding in more interesting flavours - like Garam Masala or Tarragon.

I literally just learned how to cook with Tarragon. Fun fact - it goes great with Shrimp.

The thing with this cooking analogy (which I'm really starting to like btw) is that we're not all cooking the same meals, and our skill levels and comfort levels are going to be so different. That's why I'll never tell you what to invest in, but simply educate you on how to build the perfect meal for you.

With this episode, I want to share with investors, or soon-to be investors that stock picking can be very lucrative, but it's a lot more complex. To succeed, you need to have a solid understanding of portfolio balancing and how cyclical stocks perform.

Here's what I get into:

2:09 - Risk Tolerance
5:39 - What are Cyclical Stocks
10:00 - Defensive Stocks
14:39 - Advantages to Owning Cyclical Stocks
17:11 - Disadvantages of Investing in Cyclical Stocks
19:15 - Discussing Sectors
25:30 - How I'm Playing It

It would mean the world to me if you could leave me a review in the Podcast App. Reviews help my podcast reach more people and help me educate more people on how to invest and grow their money.

Until next time.
