ALLAN GRAY – Lessons for investing in uncertain times
Loading player...
GUEST - Tim Acker - Portfolio manager at Allan Gray
With 2024 being an election year for almost half the world’s population, including South Africa, the US and
the UK, many investors are worried about what the future holds and how it will affect their wealth.
But the times we live in will always be uncertain and the trick is to remember many of the behavioural biases
that erode wealth during periods of heightened risk. In times like these, we can improve our long-term investment outcomes by focusing our efforts on the things that stay the same, rather than the variables that are out of our control.
Tim Acker, portfolio manager at Allan Gray, joins Kaya Biz to discuss lessons for investing through overwhelming
uncertainty.
