Yahoo Finance VideoMarkets haven't started to 'correct aggressively yet': TCW CEO
"We're a little bit more pessimistic about the global outlook", Katie Koch, TCW CEO, tells Yahoo Finance, saying she's "struck" by the upbeat sentiment at this year's Milken conference. Our team has been getting the economic hot take from executives and industry heavyweights of all stripes at the annual event in Beverly Hills. Attendees seem to have one theme in common: boundless optimism. This glass-half-full approach, or some might call it cognitive dissonance, seems to be the name of the game. Koch, however, sees a challenging macro environment ahead. "We're in the camp of [the Fed] having a medium to hard landing," she says. "I don't think the rest of the sentiment has caught up to that view." Koch, who spent 20 years at Goldman Sachs' Asset Management Division, is no stranger to the changing economic tide, and the reaction of asset classes. "We're probably going to have more volatility and draw downs ahead," she says, as "the markets haven't started to correct aggressively yet". Stocks have rallied so far this year, though not without some turbulence fueled by the banking crisis. "We can see a relatively sanguine expression that credit spreads haven't widened yet" she says, adding, "we haven't seen the Vix (VIX) broaden out a lot." Brian Sozzi spoke to Koch at this year's Milken Conference. Key Video Moments 00:00:05: Global outlook 00:00:20: Economic landing 00:01:00: What's driving the positivity
