In this conversation, Pascal Huegli and Ram Ahluwalia discuss the current macroeconomic landscape, describing it as a Goldilocks economy with constructive conditions for risk assets.

Ahluwalia highlights opportunities in emerging markets, the impact of AI on productivity, and the potential risks associated with the AI bubble.
