Given the exceptional strength of the equity market in the second quarter, the global indices inching towards all-time highs and the growing dissonance in investors' market perceptions, our portfolio managers have a plethora of engaging topics to discuss. Join Damian Fernandes, Managing Director, Portfolio Manager, TD Asset Management Inc. (TDAM), Benjamin Gossack, Managing Director, Portfolio Manager, TDAM, and Jose Alancherry, Vice President, Retail Client Portfolio Management, TDAM, for an engaging three-part Q2 roundtable chat on the equity market.

In this first part of the chat, our portfolio managers discuss the emerging global industrial supercycle, underlying fundamentals pushing equity markets to new highs and the diversification difficulties arising from the new Artificial Intelligence (AI) theme.

A party is going on in the markets - Why are investors disinterested? (2:55)
