An inflationary landscape is a challenge, but with the right understanding, it can be a great opportunity for traders.
Tickmill is running a free webinar on Friday 17th February in collaboration with the CME Group to explain “How equity markets relate to long-term interest rates and inflation”.
The hosts, CME Group Executive Director Erik Norland and Director of Education David Gibbs, will help investors and traders to understand how an inflationary landscape may impact the equity and bond market, what the upsides and downsides are of inflation, and what would happen to the markets should inflation skyrocket beyond expectations.
When: Friday 17th February, 6pm GMT
Where: Zoom
You can book your free place for the webinar here.
