What is your name?

Matthew Ko

What is the name of your presentation?

Portfolio Positioning in Today’s Market

What is a key takeaway you’re hoping the audience leaves with?

Stimulus has allowed the U.S. to avoid a recession in contrast to other regions. However certain investment opportunities exist where valuations are still priced for a recession.

Why should this topic be important to our conference attendees?

I will discuss why the global macroeconomic backdrop is uncertain with time-tested market signals being distorted due to COVID-related impacts. Making timely asset allocation decisions requires a disciplined valuation framework and careful examination of fundamentals.

What’s a question you hope to be asked following your session?

Outside of the U.S. where do you see investment opportunities?

What is something people may not know about you?

I was a dancer at K-Pop boy band concerts in the late 90’s/early 2000’s.

What is a recent book or movie that you would recommend?

Hustle.

If you could have dinner with anyone, who would it be and why? What question would you ask them?

Steve Jobs. What did he see as the next big thing in hardware (the evolution of the iPhone).

How can people connect with you after the conference?

LinkedIn, contact local T. Rowe Price representative.
