Episode 75: On the road again, and answering some top-of-mind questions
With in-person interactions once again becoming the norm, this summer, the Capital Markets Strategy team has been criss-crossing the country, meeting with advisors and clients, and speaking at events. We’re truly enjoying the face-to-face interaction and responding to inquiries from people we meet. Wherever we go, some common questions are popping up—questions like:
- Has weak market performance already been priced in?
- How does the second half of 2022 look when compared to historical downturns?
- Will we see a recession, and when?
- How do bear markets play out over time?
Let’s delve into these and other questions we’ve been getting.
