He breaks down the surge in oil prices, rising interest rates, volatility, and why this market pullback has been far more measured than headlines suggest. Karl also explains the importance of diversification, position sizing, and rebalancing during periods of uncertainty, while highlighting where opportunities may be quietly emerging. A timely, level‑headed look at navigating volatility without overreacting.
