“You’re equally rewarding the A-plus student and the student who’s doing no homework and is just showing up,” Erdoes said Wednesday at the CNBC Institutional Investor Delivering Alpha Conference in New York. “That’s a super dangerous place to be, because when that gets pulled back and the markets have to sort of figure out the good from the bad, and you have real-money buyers in there as opposed to the governments, then you start to do your homework and you figure out, ‘This is not all the same.’ ”
