In the 72nd episode of the Market Misbehavior podcast, former health-insurance exec Vibha Jha shares how she taught herself to invest, posted triple-digit returns, and topped the U.S. Investing Championship leaderboard—three separate years. We dig into her rules for buying, selling, handling earnings season, and using tools like follow-through days and the 21-day EMA. If you’ve ever wondered how to marry fundamentals with technicals (à la Peter Lynch + William O’Neil), this one’s a masterclass. Recorded 10/21/25.

🎧 What you’ll learn
- Process over prediction—and how to build a consistent routine
- How Vibha times entries with rally days & follow-through days (TQQQ example)
- Her sell discipline: 21-day EMA, stalling days, undercut rules
- Balancing core vs. explore positions and using leverage ETFs responsibly
- A practical checklist for earnings season (before & after)
- The “move in, don’t marry” approach to positions (scale in, then add)
