HANDLS Indexes Co-Founder Matthew Patterson joined Jill Malandrino on Nasdaq #TradeTalks to discuss income investing and a vehicle designed for a predictable flow of income.
Since the “Financial Crisis,” the hope was that inflating asset prices would trickle down into economic growth.

In a “market mania,” retail investors are generally “long confidence” and “short experience” as the bubble inflates. While we often believe each “time” is different, it rarely is. It is only the outcomes that are inevitably the same.
