Mark Melrose Strategies and Tactics
AI Market momentum, Strategic portfolio positioning and so much more.

Straightforward insight, no noise
Drawing from decades of experience in wealth management and leadership experience as a U.S. Marine Corps EOD veteran, Mark cuts through the noise and delivers straightforward insight on inflation, energy prices, defense spending, AI, market momentum, and strategic portfolio positioning.
Each episode is designed to help investors think tactically, manage risk, and make smarter financial decisions in an ever-changing market environment. You will walk away with actionable ideas, strategic perspective, and a clearer understanding of where risks and opportunities may be developing.
I will share some of my real-world experiences with you, not as abstract lessons, but as stories from the trenches. My goal is to give you the benefit of my years in the markets so you do not have to ride the emotional rollercoaster of learning everything the hard way.
“Discipline under pressure separates investors from speculators.”
