About this episode

This episode features a replay of a webinar discussing interest rates and their impact on equity strategies.

In this episode of HedgeD, we replay the July 25, 2024 HedgeD, With A Capital "D" webinar featuring Mark Yusko and Cory Lester of Morgan Creek Capital Management. Previously, Mark and Cory discussed why they believe interest rates are likely to settle into a more normalized range over the coming years, compared to the near zero interest rate period following the Great Financial Crisis, and why they believe this is likely to be a strong tailwind for long/short equity strategies going forward. As for the direction of broader equity markets, investors appear to be anxiously awaiting interest rate cuts to push stocks even higher, however, history suggests this optimism could be misplaced and that investors should be careful what they wish for.
