The Jenga Tower Is Shaking. Are You Standing Too Close?

Every day seems to bring a new warning about the economy.

Government debt.

Commercial real estate challenges.

Banking concerns.

Inflation.

Market volatility.

The headlines are different, but many of them point to the same underlying issue: leverage.

In this article, I use the analogy of a Jenga tower to explore why today's financial system feels increasingly interconnected and why investors should focus less on predicting the next problem and more on preparing for a range of outcomes.

You'll discover:

  • Why leverage amplifies both opportunity and risk
  • Lessons learned from investing through the 2008 financial crisis
  • The role cash flow and liquidity play during uncertain times
  • Why value creation often outlasts market speculation
  • How disciplined investors position themselves when the economic tower starts to wobble

Because the goal isn't to know exactly what happens next.

The goal is to build a strategy that can withstand whatever happens next.
