The Time For Cloud Stocks May Be Now

Today at The MarketBeat Podcast Kate’s guest is Tom Samuelson, chief investment officer at Vineyard Global Advisors. Tom remains optimistic about investors’ prospects going forward, despite the market’s reaction to Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s words about “pain ahead.” In this interview, you’ll hear Tom’s accurate prediction of the market’s response to Powell’s comments at the Jackson Hole summit. But Tom also offers some specific ideas about the stocks he’s watching, and why.
