Market Mayhem & The Tariff Effect - Navigating Risk vs Volatility Like a Geek

In this episode of The Finance Geeks, Warren Shute and Paul Cleworth explore the impact of Trump's tariffs on market volatility and the broader economic landscape. They unpack the difference between risk and volatility, highlighting why investors often confuse short-term market fluctuations with long-term financial danger.

The conversation dives into how behavioural biases shape client perceptions, the importance of clear communication during periods of uncertainty, and strategies for helping clients stay focused on their long-term goals. Warren and Paul also discuss how experience and financial maturity influence investment decisions, and why a calm, consistent approach can make all the difference.

Beyond the markets, they share insights into effective client management, the role of mindset in navigating uncertainty, and the value of structured onboarding in building a successful advisory practice. Whether you're advising clients or investing for yourself, this episode is packed with practical takeaways for staying steady when markets are anything but.
