Mind over market: How emotions shape your investment outcomes

Host Nigel Grant (Head of Wealth Product, ASB) is joined by Jim Renitsky (Senior Growth Consultant, BlackRock Business Consulting) to discuss how emotions like fear and envy can derail smart investment decisions. From Isaac Newton’s costly mistake to Olympic medal psychology, this episode explores why discipline, not timing, drives long-term success. Plus, why minimising losses is often more powerful than chasing big gains, and how working with a financial advisor can help you stay the course. *** This material has been created with the co-operation of BlackRock Investment Management (Australia) Limited (BIMAL) ABN 13 006 165 975, AFSL 230 523 on 31/07/2025.
