Is the U.S. Economy Stronger Than We Think? At Yale's recent CEO Caucus, 84% of top CEOs expressed optimism, predicting a "soft landing" for the U.S. economy. Surprisingly, 81% were taken aback by the economy’s resilience, despite widespread pessimism in public polls. With inflation dropping and unemployment at historic lows, real wages are growing, and GDP surpassed expectations. CEOs agree: the economy is outperforming the gloomy forecasts. What’s your take on that? Source: https://bit.ly/47Sds0i

Honored to be quoted with Vanguard’s Daniel Shaykevich in this The Wall Street Journal article on #activemanagement #fixedincome #ETFs. https://lnkd.in/ggnyBVUz At VettaFi we love to connect with asset managers of all sizes to help them drive growth and build their business. To learn more about how VettaFi can support your product and distribution growth strategies, please get in touch: https://lnkd.in/ehxiXJB3" Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, said that the higher yields on even relatively low-risk actively managed bond ETFs were likely to continue attracting investors worried about navigating the markets if and when the Fed starts lowering rates. Rate cuts that went beyond what investors are currently expecting would boost bond prices by making existing debt with higher payouts more appealing to investors. Because it’s unclear if and when the Fed is going to be cutting interest rates, investors have turned toward active management to help squeeze out as much income as possible through the benefits of ETFs,” he said.

Hot off the press from my Cliffwater colleague William Dornbrook: Startups on Sale: The Opportunity in VC Secondaries This paper outlines our perspectives on venture capital secondaries, an asset class at an important inflection point for future growth. Structural changes in private markets, a growing need for liquidity from LPs, and near-term headwinds in the IPO market have led to increased investor interest in VC Secondaries. Amid this backdrop of highly motivated sellers and improving metrics for startup quality, we believe VC Secondaries are priced attractively.
