Drowning in Information and Starving for Knowledge

Artificial Intelligence (AI) today has amplified the phrase “Drowning in Information” to a level never seen before in history.

Ironically (or NOT) we are evermore starving for knowledge as well.

And Mark Twain probably said it best…

 “If you do not read the newspaper you are uninformed.  If you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.”

~ Mark Twain ~

If Twain were alive today, his quote would say “internet” instead of newspaper or: “ask Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, etc.”

Afterall, newspapers are today’s dinosaurs on the verge of extinction.

Most specialists on Wall Street have known that, and have for decades said: “…by the time you read it in the papers, it’s old news.”

That’s because most of the “Big Money” trading action took place before the “news” got to the public.

Sorry/Not Sorry but it’s been that way since trading began.

And you can verify that with the Trump TACO Trades that have made a handful of “Insiders” very wealthy betting on the price of oil whipsawing as a result of Netanyahu’s war with Iran.

READ about TACO Trades (HERE).

Another big difference between newspapers and the internet today is how information is instantaneous and often goes viral long before it becomes mainstream.

Ironically, Twain’s quote about being “misinformed” is even more true regarding the information available today.

In other words, there’s more garbage out there than ever before.

The proof of that is in the subject line of this email, we are “…Starving for Knowledge.”

All information (good or bad) comes to us in some form of knowledge.

However, information is useless unless you understand how it applies to your life.

 

 

But you must act on knowledge or else it falls by the wayside.

And when you understand information/knowledge and put it to practice in your own life, you’ll find Wisdom.

Which brings us to a question we hear all the time:

Why do most investors make the same mistakes over and over again?

It’s simple.  They’re starving for knowledge and confused over so much mis-information bombarding them every day.

 

At Financials Matter, our combined 115+ years of experience on Wall Street teaches you how to separate the “information wheat from the chaff”.

Don’t worry, it’s FREE.

And share this email with a friend…especially if they’re Drowning in information.  They’ll thank YOU later.

And tell them:

We’re Not Just About Finance

But we use finance to give you hope.

“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
