“Advances are made by answering questions. Discoveries are made by questioning answers.” — Bernard Haisch

In light of today’s charged atmosphere, with opinion and dialogue increasingly being less about a search for truth and more about categorizing people, I have decided to defer to 2021 before putting personal views in writing. In the interim, the market perspective segment is going to be a compilation of the key takeaways from our i3 Virtual Roundtable series. For those unfamiliar, since April we have been hosting weekly video meetings with eight to 12 investors, consultants and our publication sponsors to stay connected and discuss the markets. What follows is a list of those who have participated and the insights and key takeaways they have generously shared during the past three months during these candid, off-the-record discussions (participants are listed at the end of this commentary).
