What Are the Two Main Risks Right Now?
from Ask The Compound · host The Compound
On episode 232 of Ask The Compound, Ben Carlson is joined by Jurrien Timmer to discuss: whether the Magnificent 7's recent underperformance is a healthy sign of broader market leadership, why concentration risk and higher interest rates remain key risks for investors, how long the current earnings boom can continue, where speculative capital could flow next after Bitcoin, gold, and semiconductor stocks, and how to stay invested during a bull market while protecting against the risk of an eventual bubble. Plus, Jurrien shares insights from his Weekly Asset Allocation Review and explains why a barbell approach to AI and value investing could make sense in today's market.
