Then Scott Goodwin, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Diameter Capital Partners, joins the show to break down what investors need to watch in today’s credit markets. He explains why high-grade corporate bonds may now be a safer bet than Treasuries, how to get started investing in credit, and shares his thesis behind buying Twitter’s debt.
