Summary

In Episode 37 of Market Enthusiast, Noah and Chris break down why the S&P 500 ending right where it started the year doesn’t mean “nothing happened.” They explore how long-term investors and global diversification have quietly come out ahead, with Nvidia’s earnings and AI’s rebound leading the charge. From a crypto investor who endured torture to protect $30M, to the emotional weight of letting go of inherited family items, this episode dives into what we hold onto—financially and emotionally—and when it’s time to let go.
