#volatility — Public Fediverse posts

Myth: volatility equals risk. Reality: volatility is price movement, while drawdown measures actual loss from a peak. Understanding both helps you choose brokers and strategies with calm confidence. BrokerCue explains this clearly in its guide.

BrokerCue compares regulated brokers. New to trading? Grasping the difference between drawdown and volatility is key. Drawdown measures how much your portfolio drops from a peak. Volatility tracks how wildly prices swing. Here is a quick practical checklist: first, define your maximum acceptable drawdown before every trade.

Think volatility always equals loss? It's a common myth. Volatility is simply price fluctuation, while drawdown measures actual portfolio decline from a peak. Understanding both is key to managing risk. BrokerCue breaks it down in their guide on drawdown vs volatility.

“Hydroclimate volatility refers to sudden, large and/or frequent transitions between very dry and very wet conditions. In this Review, we examine how hydroclimate volatility is anticipated to evolve with anthropogenic warming. Using a metric of ‘hydroclimate whiplash’ based on the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index, global-averaged subseasonal (3-month) and interannual (12-month) whiplash have increased by 31–66% and 8–31%, respectively, since the mid-twentieth century. Further increases are anticipated with ongoing warming, including subseasonal increases of 113% and interannual increases of 52% over land areas with 3 °C of warming; these changes are largest at high latitudes and from northern Africa eastward into South Asia. Extensive evidence links these increases primarily to thermodynamics, namely the rising water-vapour-holding capacity and potential evaporative demand of the atmosphere. Increases in hydroclimate volatility will amplify hazards associated with rapid swings between wet and dry states (including flash floods, wildfires, landslides and disease outbreaks), and could accelerate a water management shift towards co-management of drought and flood risks.

“Remember that the future won’t wait for you to be ready.” - Futurist Jim Carroll

Never wait.

Don't hold back.

Get going - right now.

Because the world as you know it at this very moment won't exist beyond the next moment. And by the time you get going, the opportunity it might present will be long gone.

And yet, you are probably like most people - you're going to wait. For the 'perfect moment' when 'the time is right.' And with that, you fall behind.
Look, throughout my 36-year voyage, I’ve seen the same pattern repeat in every industry: leaders waiting for the "perfect moment," the "final report," or the "economic recovery" to begin their next move. They treat readiness as a destination they need to reach before they can start. People do the same thing - if we have a major career opportunity, a freelance idea to chase, or a new skill we need to adapt.

We wait until we are ready.

But here is the brutal reality of the Infinite Pivot: The future doesn't care about your hesitation.

In my book, Dancing in the Rain, I explored why you have to build while it’s pouring rain. Why did I write it? Because I know most people view a period of volatility or a period of chaos as a reason to delay. They think they are being "prudent" by waiting. In reality, they are being overtaken.

Here's what I know: you need to establish a dual mindset, in which you:

Rebuild during the lows: The rainy periods, aka volatility, are the only time you have the quiet to master the next tool, learn new skills, or overhaul your infrastructure. If you are waiting for things to "get back to normal" to start your growth phase, you have already lost opportunities due to the speed of change

Pivot during the highs: When things are going well, that is exactly when the next disruption is cutting to the front of the line. It won't wait for you. You need to jump.

The Infinite Pivot is about realizing that the idea of being "ready" is a myth, a trap, a barrier. The future tends to arrive on its own schedule. If you spend your time waiting for clarity, you’ll find yourself standing in a world that has already moved on without you.

You can't control the timing, but you can control your motion.

Don't wait for the future to invite you.

Jim Carroll's book of 2007, Ready, Set, Done: How to Innovate When Faster is the New Fast, emphasized the need to be ready.

"Your goal should always be to make the impossible achievable! (Despite the chaos)" - Futurist Jim Carroll

The old rules of stability have been completely incinerated.

We are living through a period of intense volatility.

We often don't know what comes next.

And what we should do about it.

Chaos rules.

Right now, most people are still trying to find a dry place to hide, waiting for this latest storm of change to pass, but that is a losing strategy.

I wrote Dancing in the Rain for moments like this.

The core of the book - and my thinking - is that you can’t wait for the world to calm down; you have to learn to find your rhythm within the chaos. If you stay stuck in a mindset that you are just waiting for "things" to return to normal, you will be waiting a long time.

That's because while certainty might stop, most trends don't.

My 26 Trends for 2026 series highlights that making the impossible achievable is about mastering the art of the pivot.

This means building an "Optionality Architecture" that allows you to turn sudden economic ruptures into new opportunities.

Instead of being paralyzed by the wind and the rain, you need to focus on "Velocity of Recovery."

Despite everything going on, you need to continue to develop your ability to fail fast, learn faster, and keep moving forward.

The goal isn't just to survive the volatility, but to use it as the very fuel that makes your most ambitious goals possible.

Welcome to a typical Monday, 2026.

"Weird is where opportunity lives" - Futurist Jim Carroll

So, it's become really, well, weird, to speak at events and conferences as of late.

Particularly when you decide to open up your talk by placing a picture of the new Gordie Howe International Bridge between Windsor and Detroit - Canada and the US.

You need to watch this opening, from a few weeks ago.

Because the future is weird right now.

That's the way I've come to describe a lot of what is going on.

But the 'weird' issue links to the storyline of innovating despite uncertainty, as captured in my book Dancing in the Rain; How Bold Leaders Grow Stronger in Stormy Times. Here's a great summary from Mary Llaneta, an attendee at the event, as shared on LinkedIn. It's worth a read.

Here's what she wrote.

The automotive industry is… weird right now.

That’s how Futurist Jim Carroll described it. And honestly, it fits.

We’re living in a moment where: • EV adoption is political • Interest rates are unpredictable • Affordability is a real crisis • AI is exploding (and overhyped at the same time) • Consumers feel constant economic anxiety
Volatility isn’t a phase. It’s the environment.

But here’s what stood out most:

👉 In every downturn, 60% of companies fail.
👉 30% survive.
👉 10% break through.

The difference? The 10% focus on growth while everyone else panics.

A few sharp takeaways:

🔹 EV adoption isn’t a tech problem — it’s a behavioral one. Mercedes said it best: Price EVs the same as ICE. Let customers decide.
🔹 The car is now a software platform. The winner owns the screen and the experience.
🔹 Affordability is the real disruptor. When students were asked if they’d buy a BYD if available — every hand went up. Why? Price.
🔹 AI is transformational — but still early. Ignore the hype. Focus on real use cases.
🔹 The dealership isn’t dead. Complex products require trust, guidance, and service excellence.

The biggest leadership challenge right now isn’t electrification or autonomy.

It’s noise.

You will wake up to worse headlines. That’s guaranteed.

You still have three choices:

1. Panic
2. Do nothing
3. Focus on growth

The future belongs to those who are fast. -Those who adapt. -Those who keep the customer at the center.

It’s weird. But weird is where opportunity lives.

Thanks Canadian Automobile Dealers Association - CADA for brining such a great speaker to the stage

It's always a thrill to see when your key storyline hits.

In this case despite the fact that the only way to describe the future right now is that it is ... weird!

Futurist Jim Carroll believes there is a great book title in this post.

"When unimaginable headlines become reality, you've got to come up with once unimaginable strategies!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

If the future gets weird, maybe your strategies need to get weird as well.

Think about it: we are less than thirty days into 2026, and the rulebook hasn't just been rewritten—it’s been incinerated. We are witnessing a compression of history, where decades of change are now crammed into days. The definition of "stability" has evaporated, replaced by a relentless volatility that refuses to pause.

Headlines that were unimaginable a decade ago, let alone a year ago, are now common. 

All of this means that if you are still operating on last year's logic, you aren't just behind; you are watching a different movie entirely. And this one isn't a rom-com, it's a horror show.

In that context, any comfort zone is gone. The headlines proving that "it can't happen here" are being printed daily. In this environment, caution is the most dangerous strategy of all. Thinking fast and moving faster is the only way through the mess.

To survive this year (and beyond), you need to dismantle your assumptions, destroy your complacency, and challenge your belief in stability..

You need to build strategies that feel as radical as the news cycle itself.

This means you have to stop planning for the probable and start preparing for the unimaginable.

Because the unimaginable is now reality.

After all, this week, Greenland, next week?
