# 186 - An Overheated Stock Market Crash in 2026? How to Get Ready with Terry Tran

As we step into 2026, there’s a lot of noise out there. Geopolitical tension. AI hype. Market highs. Media drama. And if you’re a farm owner trying to make steady, strategic decisions in the middle of a tight season… it can feel like one more thing to carry. In this episode, I sit down with my good mate Terry Tran, founder of Freedom Trader, to cut through the headlines and look at what the data is actually telling us. Because while the media sells emotion, markets move on numbers. And if you’re building off-farm wealth whether inside super, a managed fund, or direct equities, this matters. We uncover: What’s really driving the market surge (and why it’s not as broad as it looks) Why AI investment is inflating valuations across tech What Warren Buffett and other “smart money” investors are quietly doing What questions you should be asking your advisor or super fund And how to prepare so you’re not a spectator when opportunity returns If you’re looking for a clear, practical framework to assess markets, filter quality investments, and build an off-farm portfolio with confidence, join Terry’s exclusive FOA webinar on March 17th at 7:20pm AEDT.

Thank you Terry for your generosity, your clarity, and for continuing to equip farming families with the tools to invest with confidence and discipline. Yours in investing, Jeremy Hutchings & the Farm Owners Academy Team
