In this episode host Belle Osvath, CFP® interviews Matt Gelfand, PhD, CFA, CFP®, Managing Director and Global Strategist at Princeton Global. Matt brings deep insight into the age-old debate of active vs. passive investing.
Matt shares how his academic background in economics initially led him to embrace the efficient market hypothesis, but his decades of real-world experience changed his view. He explains why active investing still has an important place, particularly in volatile markets, and outlines the logical and behavioral arguments supporting the idea that markets aren't always efficient.
From market inefficiencies created by human behavior to the critical role of active managers in making markets efficient, Matt unpacks why active management may outperform in certain circumstances.
The discussion also covers broader market forces, the impact of policy uncertainty, and how behavioral finance adds another layer of opportunity for active investors..
This episode is packed with thought-provoking insights for financial planners looking to deepen their understanding of market dynamics and investment strategy. You can connect with Matt on LinkedIn or visit PrincetonGlobal.com for more.
