Special Edition: This is a special edition of RBC’s Markets in Motion podcast, recorded on June 4th, 2024, from the RBC Capital Markets 2024 Global Energy, Power & Infrastructure Conference (EPIC). Lori is joined by two of her road warrior colleagues, Ben Fisher (Midwest Equity Sales, specializes in macro) and Amy Wu Silverman (RBC’s Equity Derivatives Strategist). The format this time is a bit different from the typical Markets in Motion podcast. Ben moderates a discussion with Lori and Amy about the big things you need to know from their recent conversations on the outlook for equities. Topics include stock market concentration and the potential catalysts for leadership rotation, the influence of retail trading, and views on the Energy and Utilities sectors.
