Quantitative Investing, Inflation and the Macroeconomy

Rob Arnott, founder and chairman of Research Affiliates, discusses topics such as inflation, macroeconomics, capital market returns, value vs growth stocks, factor timing, and index investing. The podcast explores criticisms of the Federal Reserve's handling of inflation, provides insights on investment strategies and factors, analyzes the Federal Reserve's role and interest rates, and explores the influence of traditional economic paradigms on investing in the context of Modern Monetary Theory. It also delves into the debate on energy stocks and climate change, and speculates on the likelihood of inflation expectations becoming unanchored.
