Most people think investing is about picking the right stocks. It is not.

 

This week on The Wallet, Emilie Bellet (Vestpod) is joined by Jessie Kwok, Chief Investment Officer at Wealthify, to unpack what drives investment outcomes over time.

 

They cover:

  • Why asset allocation matters more than stock picking
  • How to think about risk in a practical way
  • What shapes long-term portfolio performance
  • Why staying invested is often the hardest part
  • How to build a portfolio you can stick to
