The Biggest Questions Shaping Portfolios Right Now
Markets feel noisy right now, and investors are asking sharper questions than usual. In this episode of Off The Wall, Nate W. Tonsager, CIPM® and David B. Armstrong, CFA open with the surge in tech valuations and the unusual weight a handful of companies now hold inside the S&P 500. We'll hear about what that concentration means for volatility, why some portfolios feel out of sync with the index, and how listeners can think about risk when the market feels lopsided.
Next, they talk about the current labor environment, which is a mix of hiring freezes and productivity changes, and what those signals might suggest for the next stretch of the economic cycle.
They reflect on the themes from Warren Buffett's final shareholder letter and the kind of mindset that helps people stay steady through big market swings.
