| Dear Readers, If you're worried about near-record-low Treasury yields and what they say about the health of the global economy, you're hardly alone. As it turns out, Nobel Prize-winning economist Robert Shiller — who successfully predicted the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s and the housing bubble of the mid-2000s — is also perturbed by the brewing situation. "Something very strange is going on," Shiller told Business Insider's Akin Oyedele in an exclusive interview. "It seems unlikely that interest rates will stay so low for 30 years." Shiller also notes that the situation isn't as simple as many make it out to be. Sure, people are getting increasingly worried about a recession, but they're also reacting to demographic shifts and mounting inequality. These varied and often-conflicting narratives make it difficult to arrive at an accurate forecast, Shiller says, and it's made navigating the market much tougher. Speaking of new market variables, Dan Fuss — the vice chairman of Loomis Sayles and the lead portfolio manager of its flagship bond fund — is keenly focused on climate change and the investing opportunities it provides. "To be honest with you, I'm obsessed with it," he told Oyedele in another exclusive interview. He went on to outline how he's deploying his money: investing in both pure-play natural gas companies, and in oil companies who also produce natural gas. Read more here.
