Throughout this past year we’ve strived to answer clients’ most urgent questions via our podcast, Unfiltered Finance. We sincerely hope that you’ve found these episodes to be both entertaining and useful. In case you’ve missed it, check out our top five episodes from 2021 below.

 

1)  Bitcoin: New Asset Class or Digital Tulip Bulb Mania

Since it first began trading in 2010, Bitcoin has been grabbing headlines, and exciting imaginations. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. John McDermott as we review the recent phenomenon and explore the role of Bitcoin as a potential long-term investment. 

 

2) GameStop and the Reddit Rebellion

As the recent Reddit-fueled rally and subsequent tumble of the stocks for companies like GameStop and AMC captured the media’s attention, people struggled to make sense of the headlines and determine if these market movements somehow impacted them.  In this episode of Unfiltered Finance, we are joined by Dan Villalon, Principal and Global Co-head of the Portfolio Solutions Group at AQR Capital Management, to explore this recent event, and review potential lessons learned for investors.

 

3) Ten Commandments for Investors - Part One

Trying to time the market, or find winning fund managers, tends to be an incredibly frustrating and costly experience for investors that condemns them to underperformance.

In this episode we are joined by Symmetry’s co-founder, Pat Sweeney, who distills 35 years of experience into, “10 Commandments for Investors”.
