Australian Finance Podcast · Investing in defensive assets: Cash, bonds & gold · 21 Mar 2022 podcast

I'd go back to one of my favorite quotes from the behavioral psychologist, Daniel Kahneman, who said, what you see is all there is.

And I think with investors, there's a temptation to think they know everything and that they can predict the future and they have all the information that everyone else has.

Something I've learned investing is that really what you know is a drop in the ocean compared to all the information out there that's leading prices to go up and down.

And so even if your thesis is absolutely right on a stock that you love or a sector that you like, you could get your timing wrong, or it could already be at the top of everyone else's love list.

And sadly, there are so many examples of shares or sectors that fall a long way.

So even over the last year, all these meme stocks and a lot of these work from home stocks and cryptocurrencies, they've all fallen 80 or so percent from their highs.

So defensive assets are a great way of investing in a humble way.

It's investing in a way that you're basically admitting, look, I don't know what the future is going to hold precisely.

I think I'll be right.

But if I'm not, at least I'm going to survive.

And so I think that's why defensive assets are so appealing to me, because I think it pays over the long run to be humble with your investing.

And defensive assets are a great way of doing that.

Yeah, sure.

I mean, you mentioned our YouTube, so I'm doing some short videos as well.

If you're interested in different investing topics, that's also a place where you can go to see some different views.

But yeah, otherwise, the StockSpot website is probably the right spot.

Yeah, my pleasure.

Hopefully the listeners won't need to rely on these defensive assets.

But yeah, we'll see how it goes.
