Understanding Economic Sentiment

Ricky Mulvey caught up with Jules van Binsbergen, a finance professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, to talk about market sentiment, savings goals, and how to prepare for periods with lower rates of return. They also discuss: 

• Disconnects between the real economy and financial markets,
• Whether the US stock market is merely a “lucky survivor,”
• And the dangers of institutional thinking – in investing and academia.
