Is It Time To Dump International Stocks? (SB1647)

What this episode covers

Is it time to break up with international stocks? They’ve been underperforming U.S. markets for years, so should we finally call it quits, or is there still hope for a global comeback? On today’s episode, Joe, OG, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer dig into the great international investing debate. Are international funds a lost cause? The panel unpacks why they’ve lagged U.S. stocks and whether diversification still makes sense. Beyond stocks: Exploring other asset classes—private equity, real estate, commodities, and collectibles (because who doesn’t want to invest in Beanie Babies and vintage lunchboxes?). The $3 coin mystery: Yep, that was a thing. And yes, it’s as weird as it sounds. Election results and wooden nickels: The intersection of money, history, and questionable currency choices. Weekend plans and podcast highlights: Because investing is important, but so is having fun. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Stacking Benjamins episode without some friendly debate, expert insights, and the occasional off-the-wall tangent. Tune in for a laid-back but insightful conversation on making smart investment decisions!
