The Stock Market Crash Of 2025 | What You NEED To Know

💲 NEED FINANCIAL ADVICE? 💲
1) Google "fee-only financial adviser" or visit www.NAPFA.org (largest association of fee-only financial advisers). NOT an affiliate link
2) The first question to ask any financial adviser is, "Are you a fiduciary to me 100% of the time". Get the answer in writing
3) Please note that some people call themselves "fee-based". This is NOT the same as fee-only. Fee-only advisers have committed to being fiduciary to you 100% of the time.
4) Personally, I would only hire an adviser who is a fiduciary to me 100% of the time. This is not a suggestion on what you should do. Just sharing my personal preference.

⚠️ Azul's "Scammer" Warning ➡ PLEASE READ! ⚠️
Be careful of scammers. In the comments section, I will NEVER ask you to contact me, offer any investment products, recommend a stock broker, or anything similar. Some scam bot commenters 'ask' for investment help, and later, other comment bots reply with "how great X idea/investment/person is" in the replies. These are scam threads. Do not fall for them.

🚨 Azul's VIDEOS ARE NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE (Disclaimer) 🚨

The decisions on how to invest, when to retire, and other financial planning topics are some of the most important financial decisions you will make in your life. I urge you to seek professional financial advice as you make this decision. Ideally, from a financial adviser, AND a CPA AND an attorney. Having the perspective of all three professions will help you make the right decision for you and your family.

This information is being presented without consideration of the investment objectives, risk tolerance, or financial circumstances of any specific investor and may NOT be suitable for all investors.

This information is NOT intended to, and should NOT, form a primary basis for any investment decision that you may make. Always consult your own legal, tax, and/or investment advisor before making any investment/tax/estate/financial planning considerations or decisions.

Spoiler Alert: There are no "get rich" programs. Rather, just basic blocking & tackling and putting in time and care. Do your homework, choose wisely and (IMHO) work with experienced professionals who are fiduciary to you 100% of the time.

*514 The Stock Market Crash Of 2025 | What You NEED To Know

[michaellaw]

There is an equal market chance associated with each crash or collapse. I have seen people accumulate up to $1 million during a crisis, and even make it work in a strong economy if they are prepared and well-informed. Without a doubt, the bubble/collapse is making someone wealthy.

[SeanTalkoff]

My portfolio is -40% I’ve lost a lot since this year and would like to change that . Can someone at least advise me on what to do??

[Grace.h-to]

With the market volatility, I’m definitely feeling the pressure. I recently invested in a few stocks, but now they’re down to almost nothing. With inflation soaring and interest rates climbing, I’m wondering if it’s a good time to stick to value investing or if I should avoid stocks for a while. Bitcoin has been on the rise, so maybe there’s potential there too. What’s the best strategy in this market?

[oliviaHill-we]

I wonder if people that experienced the 2008 crash had it easier because this market conditions are driving me to insanity, my portfolio has lost over $27000 this Jan. alone my profits are tanking and I'm don't see my retirement turning out well when I can't even grow my stagnant reserve

[KsundgrSundgren]

The US economy is grappling with uncertainties, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

[Peterl]

I've seen people make seven-figure profits in both declining and rising markets; it all depends on the information and methods used. There is no doubt that the recession and crisis haven’t benefited some people significantly.

[Barbara-curly]

It really baffles me how people buy high and sell low due to deflation, I’m 53yrs never had a 401k, wondering if there is any point setting up one at this point.

[ghtdgjjlidv]

I'm afraid of burning through my cash buying every dip. Retirement has never felt more terrifying!

[paulbellas]

I really like your videos, but not a big fan of the click-bait titles. That being said, the advice you are giving is spot on regarding ups/downs. My opinion is to have 4-5 years reserve in short term bond funds. Even after the financial crisis, of 2009, the market was back in under 3 years and that was the worst crash I've seen in my lifetime. 10 years would be great but for many that would be their entire portfolio in lower yielding investments. The lost gains over time will be worse that riding out a potential crash in my opinion.

[tanyabischoff]

I feel investors should focus on under-the-radar stocks, considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $270k portfolio comprises plummeting stocks that were once revered. I don't know where to go here out of devastation.

[kencriss]

Clickbait. "I don't know when the market will crash", yet the title of this video is "The Stock Market Crash of 2025". Good Lord

[robertdylan]

You know, this is exactly what’s been stressing me out. Every time I start thinking I’m getting ahead financially, the market starts acting up again. A crash could wipe out years of savings if people aren’t prepared

[Ben-gst]

It always amazes me how so many people start selling after the market drops, then start buying again after the market rebounds. Sell low and buy high is not an effective investment strategy.

[steves]

Sadly already retired so just need to cut back and hold on until the climb back. I have 2 years in cash money market. So hopefully that covers the ride so I am not selling stock at the point.

[lendonpirre]

The market is very unstable and you can not tell If it's going bearish or bullish. I advise y'all to forget predictions and start making a good profit now because future valuations are all speculations and guesses.When these reports are bullish take some off to the side lines, when news gets bearish start buying. "Keep it simple simple" that bear/ correction was the best thing that happened me. <But all thanks to Serenwintersun for her amazing skills for helping me to earn 23 Btc through trading chart. I believe we are in the spring phase...

[benitabussell]

I’ve been worried about potential market crashes and want to hedge my $80k portfolio. Any recommendations?

[cgreene]

I'm favoured $130k every 4weeks! I now have a good house and can now afford anything and also support my family

[WorksOnMyComputer]

I'm sure Azul you sometimes cop flack for putting videos like this out there, particuarly when the US is so divided, but you are doing the right thing by the people who watch your channel and you've got my respect for that. As an Australian retiree I wish the best to to everyone through these times. Dan

[DonaldMark-nese]

The market trend can turn around very quickly. In fact, the indexes often switch from a bear market to a bull market when the news is at its worst and the mood of investors is at its lowest point. I read an article of people that grossed profits up to $150k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

[bcoffee]

I had a 401K at my job that I was at 25 years. I maxed out the payments each payday and my employer matched. It grew to a massive amount over 10 years since I had it in an aggressive mutual fund that consisted of lots of tech stocks.
At times it shot up like a rocket and the other folks in my office who had the same investment would comment on how well we were all doing. It was almost like the lottery and our future retirement looked great.
Then there were times when we took big dips. Luckily back then the dips would recover in a month or so and it was off to the races again.
This takes patience to invest for 10, 20 years or more to see the rewards. 401k investing is great but you do get slammed with taxes eventually. So you need to go beyond your final goal by at least 20% ...
