An excerpt from this podcast: Every cycle is slightly different. What I think will be slightly different this time is the Fed is starting to raise interest rates as the global economy was already slowing. In the past, the Fed was raising interest rates as the global economy was still accelerating, but because of Covid it got delayed. So this time is slightly different. I just repeat that. This time is slightly different in that the Fed hasn't even started raising rates – it's talking about them. Actually, if you look at GDP growth rates, they're beginning to slow and inflation rates are probably peaking. So it will be very volatile. It'll be a very volatile time for financial assets. It always is as you look in history when interest rates go up. And it'll be slightly different from previous playbooks because the timing and the sequencing is slightly different.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
