Investing in a Speculative Market: Thoughts From “The Intelligent Investor”

Jun 26, 2021
26:07

For financial historians and serious market observers, the current era has all the signs of a developing market bubble. 

Money is abundant, a wide range of financial assets have risen to record or near-record levels, and enormous amounts of money are flowing into stocks. Private equity funds are flourishing and bonds continue to attract huge sums.  


Demand for residential real estate is soaring as are home prices. And despite recent dramatic declines, innovative products such as digital currencies have appreciated at breathtaking speed.


Speculative trading by individual investors has also increased as a new growing community of online traders has emerged as a potent market-moving force. 

The combination of all of these forces caused me to reach out to this week’s WEALTHTRACK guest. 

We’ll be joined by Jason Zweig, a leading financial journalist who since 2008 has written the widely read The Intelligent Investor column for The Wall Street Journal. Zweig will share his analysis of the current market climate and advice for investors.
