The Sherman Show host Jeffrey Sherman, deputy CIO of DoubleLine, closes out his end-of-the-year guest tour on The Investors First Podcast, produced by CFA Society Orlando. Investors First hosts Colby Donovan and Steve Curley get Mr. Sherman’s take on the investment landscape heading into the new year, including, the price of money (4:06), inflation (6:15), whether or not he expects a Fed pivot (9:06) and where he sees opportunity in the credit markets (18:36). On 2023 being a challenging year, Mr. Sherman notes, “It’s not challenged from investing. It’s just challenged from the uncertainty and the direction that investors are going to want to tilt their portfolio.”
The three also discuss, among other topics, the strength of the U.S. dollar (25:11) and expected returns for equities and fixed income (30:42). “I think it’s very easy to put a relatively high-quality credit book together that has a 6-handle yield,” Mr. Sherman says, “and it’s probably a high-6 handle.” This episode was recorded Dec. 19, 2022.
