The Roth IRA Difference
- Tax-free growth means mistakes compound too — good research pays off exponentially here versus a taxable account where the IRS shares some of the pain.
- Long time horizon → weekly analysis helps you spot structural shifts (rates, liquidity, EM flows) before they dominate headlines.
- No RMD → you're designing for decades, not quarters; consistency of process matters more than a single hot take.
- Concentrated positions (a single thematic or dividend sleeve) matter more when there is no step-up or loss-harvesting relief on the withdrawal side.
