Two newly emerging economic mega-trends that every entrepreneur should understand with Paul Dietrich

Paul Dietrich

Paul Dietrich, the CEO of Fairfax Global Markets joins Enterprise Radio. Paul manages the Fairfax Global Markets Permanent and Global Value portfolios on Covestor, the online investment marketplace where people can replicate the trades of experienced investors.

Listen to interview with host Eric Dye & guest Paul Dietrich discuss the following:

  • As an economist, you see the U.S. economy entering into a major restructuring and a systemic period of change.  These are economic restructurings that only happen every 50 years and you say it will change everything we know and offer enormous opportunities to investors and entrepreneurs.
  • You have said that there are two newly emerging “economic mega-trends” that every entrepreneur should understand.
  • Why is it that the U.S. economy only grew about 2% last year and yet the Dow was up 26%?

TIP: As the world economies are changing and more interdependent, global risk management will become more important as stock markets around the world become more volatile. Most investment managers still see the world, the stock market and the economy through the prism of the last 50 years.

It will be very important for investors to find an investment manager who understands the opportunities of these new economic megatrends and, at the same time, can actively manage the global risk.
