Sudden outbreaks in volatility through this year have spooked the equity markets, and investors are questioning if more is to come. We spoke with rate market expert, Gopi Karunakaran, Portfolio Manager at Ardea Investment Management, who warned that there could be more to come. 

In this short video, he focuses on a global shift in central bank policy as the key driver of the volatility seen so far, as they withdraw their support of asset prices. He also discusses what the growth path of the US economy and the replacement of the Fed Chairman means for this dynamic. Ultimately Gopi warns investors everywhere that: “those events of the year to date were just a little taste… we expect much more of that going forward.”
