Episode notes
Volatility Is Cyclical Not Structural
- Current volatility looks cyclical, not an inflection point for long-term portfolios.
- Joe Terranova says hedge funds and institutional traders are stepping back, providing less liquidity amid headline-driven swings.
Don't Trade Headline Volatility
- Avoid trying to trade headline-driven volatility and keep quality holdings in place.
- Jason Snipe recommends holding a quality portfolio and only add if you take a long-term view on specific names like Microsoft or Alibaba.
Stick To Allocation And Hunt Dispersion
- Maintain original allocations to quality and diversify across caps and regions.
- Shannon Sokosha highlights opportunities ex-US and in duration on fixed income while stressing dispersion across names.
