Correlation: Why Everything Crashes at the Same Time

In this episode

Correlation is the reason everything crashes at the same time — and why diversification often fails when you need it most. In this episode, we unpack how assets become interconnected under stress, why correlations spike during crises, and the hidden links most investors never see. We explore forced selling, liquidity shocks, and the behavioral patterns that make markets move as one. You’ll learn how to spot correlation risk in your own life and how to build a portfolio that can withstand multiple pressures at once.
