Description

Think you're too late to start investing? Think again. In this episode of Trader Talk, Kenny Polcari sits down with Steve Sosnick, chief strategist at Interactive Brokers, to discuss strategies for investors who are getting a late start. Sosnick emphasizes the importance of risk management, advocating for a disciplined approach focused on capital preservation and high-quality dividend stocks rather than speculative, high-risk trades. They also explore the responsible use of options to enhance income, how AI and algorithmic trading are reshaping the markets, and why understanding your personal risk tolerance is crucial for successful investing.
