We look at millions of data points that are all coming together to look at the holistic view of the asset itself, the market, but also our entire portfolio as a whole as well. - Veena Jetti“I do think that anybody who isn’t comfortable investing, or doesn’t understand the investment, or is talking to a sponsor who doesn’t explain the investment and answer all of your questions. I do think that is a moment to kind of take a pause.” - Veena Jetti Resources Mentioned:Vivefunds Connect with Veena on Instagram, and Twitter. Send her an email at veena@vivefunds.com.
