The finance space is in a bit of a tough spot right now. With the Federal Reserve likely to carry on raising rates throughout this year, and the impact of a Trump presidency inflicting what remains a relatively uncertain outlook across a spate of industries, capital allocation is difficult. This is weighing on sentiment, and in turn, prices. Of course, when prices depress, smart money is able to pick up an exposure at a discount, and we’ve seen just that happen today.
