Episode notes

Last year the bond market, last year was the worst year for the bond market since the 1780s. Now that is turning around and we've seen the long-term treasury go from 4.3 to 3.6 roughly. But the way I look at it, a bond investor is trying to protect himself or herself from inflation,. And so that market, I believe the tips implied inflation rate is about 2.1 or 2.1. It's very close to that.

On this episode of For Your Innovation, we wanted to highlight last week’s special edition of “In the Know,” a monthly video series featuring ARK CEO/CIO, Cathie Wood. In this special episode, Cathie is joined by her mentor, former professor, and advisor to ARK Investment Management LLC, Dr. Art Laffer. Famous for the Laffer Curve, Art is an economist and was named one of Time’s Greatest Minds of the 20th Century.

Together, Cathie and Art dive into the recent banking crisis and the world of cryptoassets.

We hope you find this monthly series useful, especially during periods of heightened volatility. Stay Healthy. Stay Innovative.
