DFD Partners CEO Devon Drew on the State of US Economy
Devon Drew, CEO and chief investment officer at DFD Partners, joined Cheddar News to discuss the state of the economy as the major indexes continue their positive trends. He also had a few suggestions for investors who are weighing risks. "On that same note with the banking crisis, you've seen money flow out of the banks and into money market mutual funds," Drew said. "From a sector perspective, looking at financials and looking at all the mid and smaller tier banks that could potentially be under similar stresses as we've seen from Credit Suisse and SVB and First Republic."
