The U.S. equity market has taken investors on a bumpy roller coaster ride, leaving some of us queasy. We discuss what drove the rally, lingering risks, and the market’s potential from here.
U.S. government borrowing costs on longer-maturity debt have risen more quickly than on shorter-maturity debt since so-called reciprocal tariffs were announced. We discuss what drove that reaction and why the difference is likely to persist.
Questions regarding the Federal Reserve’s price stability and maximum employment mandates abound. We look at what investors should know at a time when there is a lack of clarity regarding the central bank’s next moves.
Running up debts to buy foreign goods is unsustainable in the long term. Identifying the problem is simple, but we see no easy or quick escape for the U.S. from the imbalances built up over the last four decades.
The longstanding relationship between the U.S. and Europe is changing, with deep consequences for the euro area and its economy. We look into the impact of this metamorphosis on the corporate sector and discuss the related investment opportunities.
The Fed has often been quick to cut rates to help support the economy during slowdowns. We look at why the current combination of potential inflationary pressures and policy uncertainty may leave the Fed sidelined longer than some investors may hope.
As the U.S. and China continue their tariff battle, we look at the potential impact of tariffs on China’s economic growth and what steps China equities investors should take if there is a market rebound.
The dollar’s role in the global economy is evolving, and its “exorbitant privilege” looks to be as well. We examine the greenback’s role as the reserve currency and the implications of the world’s changing currency appetites.
We explain why the details associated with the tariff saga are less important than overall investment strategy, and why investors should think about their long-term strategic allocation as an anchor during periods of extreme volatility.
Extreme stock market corrections are difficult to endure. We answer key questions, examining the unique contours of the tariff challenges and the areas of the U.S. equity market that we think can at least hold up better against the headwinds.
