Friends That Invest · Do This RIGHT NOW during the Iran War · 13 Apr 2026 podcast

They were not expecting Iran to retaliate.

They kind of just thought, we've got this in the bag.

And the markets actually reacted quite well.

normally almost positively to the news after a small blip.

Markets didn't tumble as much as people thought they would because investors basically said, do you know what?

I don't think this is the end of the world.

I think that this will be a short stint and therefore we've priced it in and it won't be a huge issue.

Then on February 25th, the market started to have a change of heart.

They said, okay, this war is still going on, the Strait is causing issues, oil is becoming an issue, and Iran is not backing down in the way that the US and Israel thought it would.

This might be a bit of a longer war than we expected, and the markets then priced this in by causing a large reduction.

From February 25th, 2026 to time of recording at the end of March, this saw an 8% drop in the S&P 500.

And from March 25th, 2026 to March 30th, just a matter of days, the market dropped 4%.

which is a large drop, not necessarily the worst drop.

But of course, people were very, very scared because now it seems that investors are thinking, hey, this might be an issue for longer.

And now I'm not so sure where my money should go.

This then leads us on to chapter two of this episode, which is, do you really need to be worried?

What has happened in the past?

I always find that humans behave in very similar ways, not always the same and not always predictably, but there is a reason why people say history tends to repeat itself.

Even if past performance isn't a guarantee of future success,

It's worth taking a look down the line to see what happened when we had wars.
