Ally's Bell sounds an alarm on inflation...

CHUCK JAFFE
About this episode

Lindsey Bell, chief investment strategist from Ally Invest,  says that worries about inflation being spurred by economic stimulus are real, and while she thinks the real troubles with rising prices are still a few years off, she expects an inflation spike this year and says it could be the hot topic this summer, as prices rise but the Federal Reserve holds the line on low interest rates. Also on the show, Wendy Huang of the London Stock Exchange Group, discusses why fund sponsors and businesses are finding it particularly lucrative and timely to open new issues overseas now, and Thomas Kirchner of the Camelot Event-Driven Fund talks stocks in the Market Call.
