Cash and cash-like assets provide dry powder to redeploy when risk premiums improve; the fund balances protection with growth to capture opportunities while avoiding excessive risk when market conditions change.
Capital Preservation: The Art of Not Losing Money, with Jasmine Yeo from Ruffer
Q: If markets usually go up, why spend so much time thinking about what could go wrong?
