In this week’s episode of the Plutonomix Podcast, Barnaby Levin and Laurie Kamhi discuss investment tips for navigating a potential Recession. They suggest raising Cash and allocating some part of that to short-term Treasuries while, from a longer-term perspective, they consider everything from Distressed and Floating-Rate debt; to Small-Cap stocks; and (for those with a contrarian bent) Commercial Real Estate. However, when it does come to Small Cap at this point of the economic cycle, they stress the importance of diversification, as there will be "blow-ups."
