#176 Closing the Gender Gap in Investing

Welcome to episode #176 of Stock Club by MyWallSt. In this episode, your hosts Michael O’Mahony, Anne Marie, and Emmet Savage are diving deep into a thought-provoking discussion that challenges conventional wisdom and explores untapped opportunities in the world of investing.We challenge the status quo and imagine a world where investing knows no gender boundaries. We talk about Peter Lynch and how he credits his wife's sharp eye for some of his best investments, in his book "One Up On Wall Street". It's time to acknowledge and harness the power of a woman's perspective in the world of finance.We shed light on critical issues like pay disparity and the lack of financial education and confidence among women, factors that often deter them from investing. We also discuss the concept of a Becky Fund, specifically designed to target high-spending women, and how picking stocks based on daily interactions with companies can demystify the stock market.So, whether you're a seasoned investor or just getting started, this episode is packed with insights that can transform your approach to finance. This episode is sponsored by Vodafone Business.
