Excess Returns, Ep. 21: Interview: Psychology and COVID-19 with Dr. Daniel Crosby

In this week’s episode we shift gears a little from our usual investing focus. We wanted to spend some time talking about the current COVID-19 crisis and its impact on all of us as people. To do that, we brought in an expert of human psychology and behavioral finance, Dr. Daniel Crosby. Daniel is the author of the Behavioral Investor and the Chief Behavioral Officer at Brinker Capital.

In the interview, we discuss:

What we are going through as a society with the COVID-19 crisis;
How we can all learn to better cope with the stress it brings;
The impact it will have on our behavior in the future;
The impact on us as investors and Daniel’s process to help investors avoid making bad decisions during times like these.

We hope you enjoy the discussion.
