The current market volatility is seen positively as it broadens the bull market to other sectors, which is beneficial for innovation-based strategies.

The equity ETF market is generally more liquid than the bond market, and during periods of volatility, the ETF infrastructure has handled trading effectively, unlike mutual funds that face redemption pressures.

As a portfolio manager in the ETF space, I focus solely on investment decisions without worrying about flows, unlike in mutual funds where redemptions can complicate management.

We have been successful because we are good at forecasting and do not overpromise, which has helped us maintain strong investor confidence.

In the ETF space, liquidity is often misunderstood; during the 2008-2009 crisis, ETFs provided liquidity when underlying bond markets were not functioning.

We need to discuss the liquidity of the market, especially regarding ETFs, and the ongoing debate between inflation and deflation.

Despite the pandemic, the venture capital world has adapted well to remote investing, showing resilience and a quick return to business as usual.

We emerged from the recent interest rate cycle stronger, launching major new products and replatforming our strategy, which has led to great business performance this year.

When investing, prioritize markets over teams, as a strong market can drive success even with a less competent team.
