Beyond Bulls and Bears – Timely Insights Delivered Straight to Your Inbox


“Bear markets have always been temporary. And so have bull markets.” — Sir John Templeton
Markets are always changing. Positive news one day can lift market spirits and send prices soaring – but negative news the next day can dampen spirits, causing prices to sink. It’s the same old battle between bulls and bears many investors already know. At Beyond Bulls & Bears our mission is not to bring you the latest hot stock tip or bit of Wall Street gossip. It’s to share the on-the-ground, perspectives of investment professionals adept at navigating the increasingly complex world of global investing.
Beyond Bulls & Bears is provided by Franklin Templeton Investments. Each week, we’ll track down Franklin Templeton’s money managers to get you their perspectives on investing to share what they’re thinking and when they’re thinking it. We also value your perspective, and welcome your comments and questions, as we try to produce content that addresses your needs.
As a financial advisor seeking ideas for your practice, we’ll cover topics that are timely and relevant to you. You can also easily share these ideas and perspectives with your own clients either directly or as a way to support your own social media programs.
