The 4 Stock Market Cycles That Decide Who Makes Money and Who Gets Left Behind

Welcome to this week's episode of the Money and Investing Show with Andrew Baxter and co-host Mitch.

In this episode, the focus turns to Stock Market Cycles and how they shape investor behaviour, decision-making, and long-term results. Many people recognise boom and recession, but far fewer understand the full cycle and how each phase impacts risk, opportunity, and timing.

Andrew break down the four key Stock Market Cycles and explain what typically happens in each stage, from rising confidence in a boom to hesitation during recovery. More importantly, they highlight how emotions like fear, greed, and overconfidence can influence outcomes, often leading investors to act at the wrong time.

The discussion also covers practical ways to approach these cycles with more clarity. From understanding the difference between price and value to using tools like on-balance volume and volatility, this episode focuses on building a process based on facts, not feelings.

If you want to improve how you respond to changing market conditions and make more informed decisions, this episode offers a clear framework grounded in real market behaviour.
