ChampionsCall:
Pella Funds Management
The factors growth and valuation – a promising combination
For the last few years, the hype around the factor growth and the favourable interest rate environment drove the market up. Rising inflation and tighter monetary policy then caused the markets to topple, with many hyped-up stocks losing a lot of their value.
In this ChampionsCall, Jordan Cvetanovski, CIO of Pella Funds Management, explains how his global equity strategy successfully navigates through different market environments. By focusing on the factors growth and valuation, Pella’s strategy could minimise the major risks of overvalued stocks to the portfolio while providing a path through the current high inflation.
