Q1: Updates on stock market chaos and a teeny, tiny market rally

  • Summary

  • Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape. This week, Linda unpacks recent stock market volatility, and its causes, which include layoffs and DOGE firings of federal workers, tariffs, and inflation. We are seeing a small rally in the market, however; but it’s unclear how long this will last. Linda also reviews the stock market’s performance in February. It’s no surprise that the Dow, the S&P 500, and the NASDAQ were all down in February. Linda helps us zoom out and look at larger trends in the market. She also provides advice for us as investors on how to approach our portfolios during all of this chaos in the stock market and the economy.
