E69 – Hedging Against Inflation with ZTIP, ZGD&ZEO - a podcast by BMO Global Asset Management

With the Federal Reserve remaining unchanged on its stance on inflation in the wake of an economic recovery, what are the most pressing concerns for investors and how should they prepare? Alfred Lee and Danielle Neziol discuss the implications of the supply-demand imbalance, and reliable indicators to watch for. They also look at ETF strategies to hedge against inflation across both fixed income and equity portfolios, from US TIPs and real return bonds to base metals and oil.
