Mukarram Mawjood on Global Investing, Risk, and Teaching the Next Generation | Ep 1086

In this episode of The Digital Executive podcast, Mukarram Mawjood shares how his diverse upbringing across Asia, the Middle East, and the United States shaped his global investment philosophy. With over 15 years of experience trading in equities, commodities, and crypto, he emphasizes the importance of cultural sensitivity and international awareness in navigating global markets. Mawjood discusses how true risk is often misunderstood—not as a guaranteed loss, but as a probability that can be managed with discipline and emotional intelligence. He also breaks down the importance of distinguishing between earning and creating money, a concept that guides both his investing approach and his work educating young people.Mukarram passionately describes his “Young Trader of the Year” initiative, which aims to equip youth with real financial literacy—not just saving or budgeting, but learning to generate wealth and make informed decisions. He stresses that time, not money, is the real currency, and that teaching self-reliance is critical for future success. When asked about AI’s role in trading, Mawjood asserts that while technology increases access, it doesn’t level the playing field—education, effort, and resourcefulness do. He concludes with the insight that 75% of trading success is mental, not technical, and encourages aspiring investors to develop emotional discipline and follow price action like a skilled surfer catching a wave.Subscribe to the Digital Executive Newsletter for curated strategies, expert perspectives, and industry trends.  Sign up now here.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
