AAII + BetterInvesting: What’s Wrong With Wall Street Wisdom?

Presented by John Bajkowski, Doug Gerlach

What if everything Wall Street taught you about investing was designed to make someone else rich ... as you're left sitting on the sidelines? In this webinar, John Bajkowski of AAII and Doug Gerlach of BetterInvesting team up to challenge the conventional advice that Wall Street loves to repeat. They dig into why so many familiar sayings like “buy the rumor, sell the news,” “don't fight the Fed” and “never catch a falling knife” aren't really designed with your best interests in mind, and who actually benefits when investors follow them.
