Markets are supposed to move on fundamentals — company earnings, real estate performance, supply and demand. But in today’s hyperconnected world, strong headlines can move billions. In this episode of Wealth Unfiltered, hosts Samantha and Chris Parrinello break down how breaking news, Fed decisions, and tech narratives can hijack market performance — and what investors can do to stay grounded.

From the 2025 tariff shock to the Fed’s recent rate cuts and the AI stock craze, we dissect the psychology behind every headline-fueled swing.
