About this episode
The episode discusses the risks of stagflation and investment strategies with expert Tom Becket.
One of the biggest economic concerns for asset allocators is the prospect of a return to a 1970s-style period of stagflation. To discuss the reasons why a stagflation shock is on the cards, and how investors can attempt to navigate this risk, Kyle is joined by Tom Becket, co-chief investment officer at Canaccord Wealth. The duo discuss prospects for funds, shares, bonds, and alternative assets. Kyle Caldwell is Funds and Investment Education Editor at interactive investor.
