This week on WealthTrack, Consuelo Mack calls into question the long-dominant efficient market theory and explores what models should be used by investors to navigate the markets. She discusses this with two top fund managers, Jerry Senser, a former Morningstar Fund Manager of the Year and the lead portfolio manager for all of ICAP, including their MainStay ICAP Funds, and noted contrarian Robert Kleinschmidt, who manages the top-rated Tocqueville Fund.
