Lacy Hunt

Hoisington; debt-disinflation, long-duration Treasuries

Lacy Hunt is Executive Vice President and Chief Economist at Hoisington Investment Management Co., a Texas-based fixed-income manager. He has argued for decades that excessive debt depresses economic velocity and generates disinflationary pressure, a view that underpinned Hoisington's long-duration Treasury strategy. His quarterly reviews are widely followed by macro investors for their monetarist and Irving Fisher-influenced analysis.
