In Episode 11, which was recorded live at the Morningstar Investment Conference in Chicago, Julie Segal talked to BlackRock’s Rick Rieder, who created THE buzz at the conference after his morning presentation, which he boldly called ‘What Is Money’ (and which included a prediction that AI would create a 15-hour work week.) Julie got Rick, the CIO of $3 trillion in global fixed income, to finish — at least for now — the conversation he started. The discussion ranged from the existential questions about money, market structure, and the changing nature of global investing to reimagining the 60/40 portfolio. The episode is a masterclass in long-term, contrarian thinking. Oh, and Rick gets to revisit his 2016 interview with Julie where he warned that Investors need to “stay away from the soup of the day.”
