The Innovation Premium:
Explaining Today’s Binary Equity Market
12:00 PM Wednesday July,
15th
Please join Brian Foerster,
CFA, Investment Strategist, Lord Abbett, to discuss how in this most recent
downturn, the market has sharply differentiated between innovative secular
growers versus economically sensitive, cyclical names. More specifically,
virtual empowerment stocks, which are benefiting from social distancing, have
distinguished themselves from those businesses that are dependent upon
proximity to others. We have been excited about the technological revolution
for decades, and now, given the dramatic March pullback, the conversation is
more topical than ever.
