Embracing Stoicism as a financial adviser

“Stoics focus all their energy and intelligence on things they can control. The wisdom of Stoicism is to control emotions both when it’s punishing favoured positions as well as when the market rewards. Equanimity under both conditions allows advisors to make rational decisions about what to do and when.”
