Question for Prime Quadrant, Professor’s commentary on ESG seems to be at odds with your own firm’s take on ESG…which I believe is that while it did start out as some type of sin aversion approach, it has now become very relevant and can’t be ignored. But his take is that ESG’s so called success is really correlated to their superficial overweight in tech which was very era-specific (2009-2021) where the price of long tail risk was basically free. I’m sure you could talk Professor into some middle ground…perhaps he has some resentment with the origins of ESG as opposed to what it has evolved to. But does this not make you rethink your alignment with the approach in your investment decision making for your clients? I am relatively new to the wealth management industry, I’m not a client nor a critic.

Would be interesting to poll people whether they would rather have inflation at 8% or a forced recession.

[@richardswatman4011]

Recession

[@ThinhNguyen-xn1cs]

Definitely quick and painful recession
