Humans are such an interesting species.

We’ve been able to survive and prosper through so many difficult periods in history.

Through Ice-Ages, Heat Waves, Predator Attacks, famins and so much more, we’re still here.

And so many of the survival instincts that have led us through these difficult periods in history, have been deeply ingrained into our subconscious mind, to help us make fast and instinctual decisions.

But, some of these strengths that have got us to where we are today, are actually flaws when it comes to investing.

Because they create psychological biases, that prevent us from making the right decisions at the right time.

And in this episode of the Where’s My Money podcast, we explore the question. Should we ignore our gut instinct and follow formulas to make our investment decisions?

To explore this, we spoke to Rukun Tarachandani, who’s a VP at PPFAS Mutual Fund.
