Finance Hour On J-air

A black swan event is a metaphor that describes an event that comes as a surprise, has a major effect, and is often inappropriately rationalized after the fact with the benefit of hindsight. In this week's episode we discuss. Whether one can ever predict a black swan event? Was the 1987 sharemarket crash a black swan event? What about the GFC? How can investors safegaurd their portfolio in the face of uncertainty? Our interview guest Tim Farrelly has some strong views which are well worth listening to.
