      <title>Q1: Interpreting PPI Data and ADP Jobs Report + The highest oil price spike in years</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping lower-income communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.On this episode, Linda interprets both the most recent data from the Producer Price Index (PPI) and the Automatic Data Processing (ADP) Jobs report. Trump says inflation has decreased, but Linda uses the PPI data to reach a different conclusion. Linda also discusses how the jobs report showed an unexpectedly high amount of jobs created for the private sector and why, despite this, manufacturing jobs are still in decline. Lastly, she says this is the highest oil price spike since 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine. There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor.

      <title>Q1: From the archive: Yes, the stock market is crashing–here’s what to do about it</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and public speaker, is dedicated to empowering lower-income families and those without access to investing resources through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence and champions equity and representation for all. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping lower-income communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Linda examines the most recent jobs report–and while we added 228,000 jobs to the market, the unemployment rate increased from 4.1% to 4.2%. Normally, positive jobs numbers would be reflected positively in the stock market, but the market isn’t celebrating at all. Trump’s tariffs and resulting reciprocal tariffs from trading partners like China are causing stock market chaos.

Speaking of stock market chaos… We’ve been waiting and wondering if and when the market was going to crash. It is now. This is not the time to sell off your entire portfolio. This is the time to hold on–that will only cause the stock market to crash further. This is the time to invest in those blue chip stocks that you normally can’t afford. This is the time to hold fast and have patience, and manage your emotions as an investor. Remember: we’ve seen market crashes before. We’re currently headed towards a bear market, which means that yes, the stock market is crashing, or has crashed (depending on when you listen to this). And yes, the catalyst is Trump’s tariffs, and the possibility of a full-blown global trade war.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping lower-income communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Today, Linda is explaining how Trump’s trade war with Canada and Mexico is affecting the stock market and the economy. The Dow, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ have all seen swings and drops following the announcement of the tariffs–and the stock market will continue to oscillate due to the instability of the news cycle. Economists are concerned about the possibility of an upcoming recession, due to the potential instability of the GDP, and upcoming contractions in American imports and exports. So, what do we do when things get unstable? We stay put! No sudden moves in your portfolio!There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping lower-income communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Today, Linda is explaining how Trump’s trade war with Canada and Mexico is affecting the stock market and the economy. The Dow, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ have all seen swings and drops following the announcement of the tariffs–and the stock market will continue to oscillate due to the instability of the news cycle. Economists are concerned about the possibility of an upcoming recession, due to the potential instability of the GDP, and upcoming contractions in American imports and exports. So, what do we do when things get unstable? We stay put! No sudden moves in your portfolio!There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor.

      <title>Q3: The market swings upward, Coinbase stock explodes, and tariffs are (still) up in the air</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

The stock market is taking a big swing upward right now, and Coinbase investors especially are having a moment. Today, Linda is unpacking why this is happening, including Coinbase's recent inclusion in the S&amp;P 500 index. Linda also talks about the other positive incfluences on the market, including the pause on tariffs (for now). Remember: these gains are great... but they won't last forever. So manage your portfolio responsibly and don't make any sudden moves.

Linda also talks about the other positive incfluences on the market, including the pause on tariffs (for now). Remember: these gains are great... but they won't last forever. So manage your portfolio responsibly and don't make any sudden moves. </p>

      <title>Q2: From the archive: Managing your emotions as an investor: following the stock market’s rollercoaster week  </title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

We're dipping into the archives to bring you an always-relevant topic: keeping your emotions in-check while the stock market swings, dips, and rises.To say that it has been a wild week for the stock market is an understatement. Linda reminds us that along our financial journey, we’re going to hit bumps in the road. What do we do when the market starts going haywire? Sit tight, take a deep breath, and wait out the chaos. When you’re investing, patience is the name of the game. And don’t forget: this election season has been pretty intense! And the stock market and the economy are reacting. Just stay the course, breathe, and don’t make any sudden movements!

There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor. If you have questions about different kinds of investing, please reach out! You can find us on Patreon, and submit questions without getting a membership (but we appreciate it if you do decide to invest in our show!). We love speaking with our listeners.

Linda just wrapped up her first legislative session in the Texas House of Representatives--and was honored as an exceptional member of the freshmen legislative group!

She analyzes the intense swings this past spring--from the all time high in February, to the all-time low in April. She also explains how American politics are impacting our economy and the stock market. She also recommends some investment strategy.There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

This week, we’re running an episode from our archive: Lessons from Ray Dalio. Ray has been in the news lately talking about economic volatility following Donald Trump’s election, tariff implementation, and trade war. Last year, we put out an episode about Ray’s lessons on inflation and recession–we think it will resonate with you now, especially. So, in this episode, Linda discusses the teachings of famed billionaire investor and Bridgewater Associates, Ray Dalio. She also examines the trend of the ultra wealthy expanding their citizenship portfolios.

      <title>Q2: Talk me off the lege: Linda’s current financial literacy bill + an update on the stock market</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Linda is a democrat member of the Texas State House of Representatives. This week, she’s giving us an update from her political office, in a segment we’re calling “Talk me off the lege.” Linda updates us about a financial literacy bill that she’s championing in the State House in partnership with Yanely Espinal, a financial educator and content producer. Linda also gives us a stock market update. In the last week, we saw a quick stock market recovery. This is likely precipitated by earnings calls. Just remember: with so much stock market volatility, don’t make any sudden changes to your portfolio.

Linda also gives us a stock market update. In the last week, we saw a quick stock market recovery. This is likely precipitated by earnings calls. Just remember: with so much stock market volatility, don’t make any sudden changes to your portfolio.

      <title>Q2: Talk me off the lege: an update from democratic Texas State Representative Linda Garcia</title>

      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy.

Linda is a democrat member of the Texas State House of Representatives. This week, she’s giving us an update from her political office, in a new segment we’re calling “Talk me off the lege”. Last week, Linda and the rest of the reps voted on a key piece of legislation: vouchers for private education. Families are being given vouchers that potentially drive funding away from public schools in Texas. Texas and fellow Texas House democrats voted against the legislation to protect families and support public education; republicans by and large voted for the legislation–and won. In this episode, Linda unpacks what happened in this legislative session, and the impact the passage of this legislation will have on Texas residents.

      <title>Q2: Market manipulation and volatility: the stock market saga continues</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Last week, it looked like the stock market was going to crash: it actually did crash, but it recovered by the end of that trading day. Linda explains what intraday trading is. We are witnessing Trump manipulate the stock market right now, using his Truth Social and X feeds to signal stock market drops and recoveries. This is, needless to say, unprecedented. Trump is reversing on tariffs, delaying them, and making exceptions for certain goods, which is adding to stock market volatility and chaos. Currently, Linda is not making new investments. She is waiting to buy when the market is less volatile. For now, stay strong, Investies! Don’t let your emotions get the better of you as you watch the market rise and drop and rebound again. We’ll ride this out together!

      <title>Q2: Yes, the stock market is crashing–here’s what to do about it</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Linda examines the most recent jobs report–and while we added 228,000 jobs to the market, the unemployment rate increased from 4.1% to 4.2%. Normally, positive jobs numbers would be reflected positively in the stock market, but the market isn’t celebrating at all. Trump’s tariffs and resulting reciprocal tariffs from trading partners like China are causing stock market chaos.

Speaking of stock market chaos… We’ve been waiting and wondering if and when the market was going to crash. It is now. This is not the time to sell off your entire portfolio. This is the time to hold on–that will only cause the stock market to crash further. This is the time to invest in those blue chip stocks that you normally can’t afford. This is the time to hold fast and have patience, and manage your emotions as an investor. Remember: we’ve seen market crashes before. We’re currently headed towards a bear market, which means that yes, the stock market is crashing, or has crashed (depending on when you listen to this). And yes, the catalyst is Trump’s tariffs, and the possibility of a full-blown global trade war.

      <title>Q2: How a potential recession and ongoing stock market volatility can impact us–for worse and for better</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Last week, the stock market made a “v-shaped” recovery–a steep recovery after a very steep drop. But are we actually in the clear? Linda analyzes why these gains aren’t sustainable, given Trump’s volatility as a leader. His ever-changing policy decisions on things like tariffs, immigration, and diplomacy have really serious implications for the economy, and for the stock market. We’re talking recession-level implications. Is this scary? Yes. But remember: millionaires are made in recessions.

      <itunes:summary>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Last week, the stock market made a “v-shaped” recovery–a steep recovery after a very steep drop. But are we actually in the clear? Linda analyzes why these gains aren’t sustainable, given Trump’s volatility as a leader. His ever-changing policy decisions on things like tariffs, immigration, and diplomacy have really serious implications for the economy, and for the stock market. We’re talking recession-level implications. Is this scary? Yes. But remember: millionaires are made in recessions.

      <title>Q1: How to build your investment portfolio during downmarket eras, plus: the stock market’s latest small rebound &amp; why the GDP matters when it comes to recessions</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

This week, Linda looks into the latest stock market trends. You’ve probably noticed that the market has been on a downward trajectory, but the Dow Jones, the S&amp;P 500, and the NASDAQ are all seeing modest rebounds. We’re not in rally territory at all–but at least the stock market isn’t still plummeting. It’s likely that what we’re seeing is the stock market girding itself for more economic turmoil to come–between Tariffs and Trump’s divisive policies. Linda also analyzes the last six months of the stock market–from unprecedented and unstable growth since the 2024 re-election of Trump, to the market’s recent nosedive. She also provides advice for investors on how to meet the stock market in its current state. Linda also unpacks what the GDP is, and what it means when it comes to recessions. The next GDP numbers will be released on April 30, 2025; we will know then whether or not we are technically in a recession.

      <title>Q1: Dealing with more stock market chaos &amp; updates on the latest jobs report</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

This week, Linda discusses Trump’s economy, and his impacts on the stock market. As you are probably noticing, the market is still on a major roller coaster ride, thanks to Trump’s policy decisions–from DOGE to tariffs and beyond. Last, week the stock market neared correction territory after Trump enacted sweeping tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods. After the stock market nearly tanked, Trump walked back the tariffs. We are in a limbo–will Trump eventually enact more tariffs? Are we heading towards a stock market crash? Trump’s capricious decisions are impacting all of us, republican and democrat alike, and the economy and stock market are suffering.

Linda also unpacks a new jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. While job numbers are up (yay!)unemployment numbers are up too (boo!), especially among Latinx folks. This doesn’t bode well for the economy and job seekers. Sweeping layoffs and firings across the country (especially from DOGE) will be especially represented in next month’s jobs report. Linda also shares updates on the latest update from Fed Chair Powell and his latest updates on rate hikes and stock market volatility, and why his comments impacted the market positively.

Linda also shares updates on the latest update from Fed Chair Powell and his latest updates on rate hikes and stock market volatility, and why his comments impacted the market positively.</p><p><br></p><p>There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor.

      <title>Q1: Updates on stock market chaos and a teeny, tiny market rally</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

This week, Linda unpacks recent stock market volatility, and its causes, which include layoffs and DOGE firings of federal workers, tariffs, and inflation. We are seeing a small rally in the market, however; but it’s unclear how long this will last. Linda also reviews the stock market’s performance in February. It’s no surprise that the Dow, the S&amp;P 500, and the NASDAQ were all down in February. Linda helps us zoom out and look at larger trends in the market. She also provides advice for us as investors on how to approach our portfolios during all of this chaos in the stock market and the economy.

      <title>Q1: Unpacking the stock market’s latest rollercoaster ride, plus inflation data analysis</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Investies, we are now publishing new episodes every Tuesday! Thanks for tuning in. This week, Linda shares two committees she has joined in this legislative session: Pension, Investments, and Financial Services (PIFS), and Delivery of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The DOGE committee of which Linda is now a part is not the DOGE committee that Elon Musk is running on the federal level; instead, this is a committee that operates on a state level in Texas, and it reviews if Texas state agencies are running as efficiently as possible.

Last Wednesday, the stock market was at an all time high. And then on Thursday and Friday, investors started selling off, which precipitated a sharp decline in the market. Trump’s trade war, and new tariffs, are the cause. Linda unpacks how this all went down–and advises us on what to do right now as investors.

Linda also updates us on the latest in inflation. The CPI (consumer price index) measures the change in prices paid for goods and services–and it’s currently telling us that inflation is still a problem.

Please note: we recorded this week’s episode on Monday, February 10. Last week, we saw Trump impose tariffs on Canada and Mexico. In the last week, those tariffs have been deferred for a month; as of this week, tariffs on Chinese goods are in effect. Linda examines why Trump is imposing these tariffs, and how they might effect our economy and on our stock marketing and our investments. Linda also takes a look at the history of tariffs, and their impact on the national debt, and examines the latest round of Trump’s tariffs on steel and aluminum. Things look rosy now, but the fallout may negatively impact the stock market. Hold on to your profile, and don’t make any big moves.

Please note: we recorded this week’s episode on Monday, February 3. Today, Linda is explaining how Trump’s trade war with Canada and Mexico is affecting the stock market and the economy. The Dow, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ have all seen swings and drops following the announcement of the tariffs–and the stock market will continue to oscillate due to the instability of the news cycle. Economists are concerned about the possibility of an upcoming recession, due to the potential instability of the GDP, and upcoming contractions in American imports and exports. So, what do we do when things get unstable? We stay put! No sudden moves in your portfolio!

The Dow, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ have all seen swings and drops following the announcement of the tariffs–and the stock market will continue to oscillate due to the instability of the news cycle. Economists are concerned about the possibility of an upcoming recession, due to the potential instability of the GDP, and upcoming contractions in American imports and exports. So, what do we do when things get unstable? We stay put! No sudden moves in your portfolio!

There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor. If you have questions about different kinds of investing, please reach out! You can find us on Patreon, and submit questions without getting a membership (but we appreciate it if you do decide to invest in our show!). We love speaking with our listeners. Happy investing and happy trading!

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

We’re trying something a bit different this week: Linda recently spoke with Gina Zapanta (@ginazapanta_) at LATINAFest in Los Angeles. We’re sharing their conversation, which touches on Linda’s personal story, her financial journey, and her motivations for investing. She also shares tips on overcoming scarcity mindset and greed, and healing money wounds.

It’s official! Linda is serving as a democrat state representative for Texas house district 107! Today, we’re looking at the current state of the stock market, which has been reaching new highs since the November election. There has been a lot of euphoria in the market, but this isn’t necessarily sustainable for the long term. Linda discusses the reasons behind this growth, including market manipulation. Linda also explains recent news about Trump, AI, Stargate, and more. And just remember: the best way to survive a bumpy economy is to keep track of your investments and personal financial growth!

As you go farther along your wealth management and financial journey, you’re going to encounter different kinds of investing. Options trading is a certain type of investing, but we encourage you to to have a fair amount of comfort as an investor before you try it. At the very least, you should have a high tolerance for risk before you try it.

      <title>Q4: How do immigrants help our economy? An overview (rerun)</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.
This week, we’re featuring an episode from the archive. The GOP has long purported that immigration is bad for the economy. Is that true? Linda unpacks this rhetoric, and explains how immigration actually helps our economy and the stock market. She also examines how immigrants helped us avoid a recession following the pandemic slump.

      <title>Q4: Making sense of post-election market highs &amp; Cathie Wood’s latest predictions</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

The stock market has been skyrocketing since the election. Linda unpacks how Trump’s win is impacting the market–and what might take place from here on out. Don’t forget, folks: this is a great time to celebrate your portfolio gains–it’s not necessarily the best time to buy new stocks.
Linda discusses how the election may impact cryptocurrency. As of this recording: Bitcoin’s stock is at an all-time high. She also discsusses Cathie Wood’s predictions about Tesla in 2020, and how her predictions and analysis might apply to the rapid market growth we’re currently experiencing.

Linda reviews some of the latest numbers coming in from tech companies, and examines how Google/Alphabet’s latest earnings report is impacting the stock market.

She also takes a look at the latest data on the GDP, which shows that while the economy is performing well, the economy slowed in Q3 versus Q2 of this year. Linda breaks down how 
Finally: the election is next week! Make sure you’re registered to vote–and also, consider starting your investing journey! Being a direct shareholder in some of the country’s largest and most powerful and influential companies is another unexpected type of civic engagement.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

We’re sharing an episode from the archives this week! 

Linda is answering a listener question: what is options trading and how does it work? As you go farther along your wealth management and financial journey, you’re going to encounter different kinds of investing. Options trading is a certain type of investing, but we encourage you to to have a fair amount of comfort as an investor before you try it. At the very least, you should have a high tolerance for risk before you try it.

      <title>Q4: It’s earnings season! Diving into the data so far + big tech investing in nuclear power</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

We’re in Q3 earnings season! Banks are among the first to report: we dive into the data from the big banks, and it’s looking good–the vast majority of them beat earnings. Linda dives into what all of this data means for the stock market–and how the stock market influences positive earnings season data. (Hint: make sure you’re consistently investing!)
Linda also dives into why big tech firms are supporting and investing in nuclear power. It all goes back to AI: it takes a ton of power to process AI tech. She explains why it’s important to produce this power in America, and what this means for the stock market and for your investments.

Investies, there are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor. If you have questions about different kinds of investing, please reach out! Curious about the current state of the economy? Send us a question! You can find us on Patreon, and submit questions without getting a membership (but we appreciate it if you do decide to invest in our show!). We love speaking with our listeners.

      <title>Q4: How do we talk to our kids about money? Also: an update on the dockworkers’ strike, inflation, October market trends &amp; more</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

We’re covering a lot in this week’s episode! The dockworkers’ strike is over, and we’re going to unpack how this is impacting the market and inflation. We look into how inflation, historial October market trends–particularly in election years–are influencing the stock market trends. We’re also touching on how our own scarcity mindset impacts our kids’ attitudes towards money. And Linda shares a bit about campaign funding as she’s running for office (hint: it has to do with investing–at least, in the state of Texas).

      <title>Q4: A September stock market recap &amp; market reactions to global conflict, the dockworkers’ strike, and the latest job reports</title>

September is one of the worst months historically for the stock market. But the market actually performed really well–the DOW, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ are all up right now. This is unprecedented! And it’s a good reminder to start your investing journey sooner rather than later!
Several factors are influencing the market as we start October and Q4 of 2024: geopolitical conflicts throughout the world; the latest jobs report; and the dockworkers’ strikes. Just remember: we’re investing for the long term. While the stock market and the economy are influenced by the news day-to-day, hold firm in your investments and try not to make any sudden moves when the market dips or peaks.

Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures.

September is one of the worst months historically for the stock market. But the market actually performed really well–the DOW, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ are all up right now. This is unprecedented! And it’s a good reminder to start your investing journey sooner rather than later!
Several factors are influencing the market as we start October and Q4 of 2024: geopolitical conflicts throughout the world; the latest jobs report; and the dockworkers’ strikes. Just remember: we’re investing for the long term. While the stock market and the economy are influenced by the news day-to-day, hold firm in your investments and try not to make any sudden moves when the market dips or peaks.

      <title>Q3: The fed’s long-awaited decision on interest rates: how will it impact the economy and the stock market?</title>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Let’s get into it: last week, Fed Chair Powell and the FOMC voted to lower interest rates by 50 basis points. All but one member of the FOMC voted yes on lowering interest rates–and Linda agrees with that single member. She unpacks how the interest rate lowering might impact the economy and the stock market–and the historic context of this decision (spoiler alert: yes, interest rates have indeed been higher in our country’s history!). Linda also explains the terms “dovish” and “bullish” when it comes to attitudes towards the stock market.

      <title>Q3: Linda unpacks her financial journey at LATINAFest!</title>

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

We’re trying something a bit different this week: Linda recently spoke with Gina Zapanta (@ginazapanta_) at LATINAFest in Los Angeles. We’re sharing their conversation, which touches on Linda’s personal story, her financial journey, and her motivations for investing. She also shares tips on overcoming scarcity mindset and greed, and healing money wounds.
And don’t worry, Investies: Linda will be back next week discussing Fed Chair Powell’s decision to cut interest rates, and how his decision will impact us!

      <title>Q3: September is almost always volatile for the SMP500: hold tight!</title>

September is one of the bumpiest months for the SMP500–especially during an election year. The Harris/Trump debate has sent the Trump Media/DJT meme stock tumbling–and the rest of the market is reacting negatively, too. But don’t forget: we stay calm when we’re investing. Take a beat. The market is doing exceptionally well for the year. Linda also back at how the market has recovered since the pandemic, and examines the latest inflation data.

      <title>Q3: Capital gains, taxes &amp; how they factor into the upcoming election</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Linda unpacks capital gains–what they are, and how investors can use them to their advantage. She also discusses how investors use taxes on capital gains to their advantage. As you probably know already, folks who are farther along their financial journeys and have been investing for years are well aware of how to make capital gains work for them come tax season. That said–many of the wealthiest investors use capital gains as something akin to a tax loophole. As a part of her presidential campaign, Vice President Harris is proposing a tax policy aimed at the ultra wealthy, who have been exploiting capital gains for some time. This would also relieve the tax burden of the rest of us somewhat. 
There are so many ways to make the stock market work for you as you gain more experience as an investor. If you have questions about different kinds of investing, please reach out! You can find us on Patreon, and submit questions without getting a membership (but we appreciate it if you do decide to invest in our show!). We love speaking with our listeners.

Linda is answering a listener question: what is options trading and how does it work? As you go farther along your wealth management and financial journey, you’re going to encounter different kinds of investing. Options trading is a certain type of investing, but we encourage you to to have a fair amount of comfort as an investor before you try it. At the very least, you should have a high tolerance for risk before you try it.

      <title>Q3: How’s the Economy doing? Using Walmart and Target earnings reports as our guides</title>
      <link>https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/investies</link>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

So, there are some indicators that our economy is not doing so well… like, inflation is still way up. And our nation is in debt big time. But at the same time, Fed Chair Jerome Powell might not have to hike up interest rates in September. Plus, there are a TON of interventions the powers that be can make before we have a recession. So don’t get it twisted: Linda walks you through all of the data she’s looking at right now. 
Linda’s also checking in with two of her very favorite companies: Target and Walmart. Both companies had earnings calls recently, and their reports give us a lot of data about how the economy is doing, and how consumers are behaving. Linda breaks down the data from both companies.
Just don’t forget: we’re on a financial journey, not a sprint. When things get bumpy, we keep calm and try not to make any sudden moves or giant purchases.

The stock market and the economy will thank you for your mindfulness!

Beyond those crazy moments when the stock market fluctuates wildly, what are some of the other emotions investing can bring up in us? From greed to fear to scarcity mindset, investing can be a really triggering experience. Linda discusses how to identify, manage, and process some of the most intense emotions associated with investing.

To say that it has been a wild week for the stock market is an understatement. Linda reminds us that along our financial journey, we’re going to hit bumps in the road. What do we do when the market starts going haywire? Sit tight, take a deep breath, and wait out the chaos. When you’re investing, patience is the name of the game. And don’t forget: this election season has been pretty intense! And the stock market and the economy are reacting. Just stay the course, breathe, and don’t make any sudden movements!

      <title>Q3: A recap of July: How did the economy &amp; the stock market perform last month?</title>
      <description>Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

When it comes to the stock market and the economy, we get our best data and analysis when we look backwards. Linda takes a look at July, and breaks down what McDonald’s earnings call has to tell us about the state of the stock market and the economy. (If you haven’t done so already, check out our May 24th episode on Target and Walmart earnings calls.) She also breaks down the Fed’s recent decision to not cut (or raise) interest rates, how inflation impacts the middle class, and how the upcoming election will impact the Fed Chair and whether or not he’ll keep his job.

Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.

Over the course of her financial journey, Linda has learned more and more about the predictive powers of the stock market. Last week, she discussed how the stock market can predict presidential election outcomes. But the past two weeks have been full of unprecedented change in the political landscape, and the stock market is reacting with equal volatility. In today’s episode, Linda breaks down how the stock market is giving us clues about how this election might pan out. She also explains how long-time investors have been reacting to the news cycle and why. Additionally, Linda answers a community member’s question about whether or not it’s polite to ask other investors about their portfolios and their wealth building strategies.

It’s earnings calls season! Linda discusses her financial journey and her changing relationship to and interest in investing and wealth management. She also updates an episode from the archive about the intersection of geopolitics, immigration, and the economy. The GOP has long purported that immigration is bad for the economy. Is that true? Linda unpacks this rhetoric, and explains how immigration actually helps our economy and the stock market. She also examines how immigrants helped us avoid a recession following the pandemic slump.
