Investing Beliefs We Changed Our Minds On

In this candid Market Mondays clip, Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and Ian Dunlap dive into how their investing beliefs have evolved, sharing real-life shifts in perspective that can help every investor sharpen their game. Troy Millings kicks off by explaining why he’s had a change of heart about stocks priced under $25—especially in changing political and economic environments. While he was once wary of these "cheaper" stocks, Troy now sees their potential for major short-term gains, emphasizing that swing trades (rather than long holds) may be the best strategy in certain market climates. Ian Dunlap gets honest about his long-held conviction that Disney could dethrone Netflix as the top streaming giant. Drawing on years of data, updates on Disney’s streaming and ESPN efforts, and a comparison to the S&P’s performance, Ian reveals why he no longer sees Disney as a challenger to Netflix’s crown and questions whether Disney should have even entered the streaming wars. Rashad Bilal provides a valuable lesson for new and experienced investors alike, unpacking the popular advice to "invest in what you use and know." Instead, Rashad suggests going a step further: invest in companies the world *needs*—not just the ones you personally love. Whether it's Apple, semiconductor giants, or companies essential to healthcare, Rashad highlights why focusing on necessity over personal preference can lead to stronger investing outcomes. Together, Rashad, Troy, and Ian bring humor, honesty, and practical wisdom—showing that the best strategies often come from re-examining old beliefs and staying open to new ideas. *Don’t miss out on these key insights:* Reconsidering undervalued stocks in unique market conditions The realities behind Disney’s streaming business and legacy Why loving a company isn’t enough—and what to look for instead A practical approach to building a resilient, smart portfolio If you appreciate real talk about money, mindsets, and markets, hit like, subscribe, and let us know in the comments: What investing belief have you changed your mind on? #MarketMondays #Investing #StockMarket #Disney #Netflix #PersonalFinance #InvestmentStrategy #Stocks #FinancialFreedom #TechStocks #MarketTrends #MoneyTalks #FinanceClip --- *Stay tuned for more discussions, unfiltered opinions, and the tools to grow your wealth with Rashad, Troy, and Ian.*See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
