SI336: How to Invest in Turbulent Times? ft. Graham Robertson
Top Traders Unplugged
Intro
This chapter explores the evolving geopolitical landscape, particularly the situation in Ukraine and Russia, and its resonance with younger audiences. The discussion highlights how increased public engagement can shape financial strategies and market trends.
With global market dynamics shifting rapidly and geopolitical noise reaching new heights, how can investors adapt and thrive? In this episode, we explore why an adaptive approach is crucial for navigating today’s turbulent financial landscape. Our conversation delves into the challenges investors face when competing against dominant market players and how trend-following strategies can shine in times of crisis. We also examine the often-overlooked disconnect between price and value - and how this mismatch might actually present fresh opportunities. Join us for an insightful discussion with Graham Robertson from Man AHL, as we unpack these critical insights and explore why trend following remains a powerful tool for generating "crisis alpha." Buckle up for a fascinating conversation!
