Inflation figures released yesterday were encouraging and the markets reacted favorably, but what does this portend for earnings going forward? Eric Lynch, managing director at Scharf Investments, stopped by the London studios of Reuters TV to appear on their “Trading at Noon” program and share his perspectives on the markets. He noted, “If the economy is slowing, you want a high persistence of earnings going forward.” Watch the full interview at the link below. Eric’s segment begins at the 3:15 mark.
