Higher For Longer?

Ultimately bond yields reflect the state of growth and inflation, so unless we get a recession or shock (driving growth/inflation lower), then bond yields might just linger higher for longer...

The most underestimated and hated asset class right now (US Treasuries) is looking quite interesting I must say.

Definitely a contrarian setup.

But definitely worth looking into...

S&P size indexes relative performance

Basically everything that's not mega caps have underperformed --- even large caps have seen significant underperformance (i.e. the S&P500 excluding the top 100 stocks)

Highly unusual, but whenever it happens like this eventually you see some give-back...

Rate Cuts = Commodities Up. πŸ“ˆ

A global pivot to rate cuts over the past 2 years has set up a major tailwind to growth ...and ultimately higher commodity prices.

The history of US interest rates is one of long-term cycles...

Up phases, and down phases.

High rates, low rates.

But something stands out >> these cycles used to take a long time to run their course. The recent upcycle was faster and sharper.

Is this the beginning of cycle compression?

Commodity flows signal 🚨

We saw similar surge when commodities turned up from the 2020 crash lows, again accelerating into the 2022 blow-off top, and also earlier back in 2015/16 when commodities started basing after the Supercycle bust.

Bullish signal: gold.topdowncharts.com/p/goldnugget...

Markets are completely unphased by the US military build-up off the coast of Venezuela.

Which is strange, because it's a clearly observable known unknown...

Risk pricing too Complacent?

A major secular tailwind behind US Equities has been the rise and rise of foreign stockholders.

I'd call this a strength, a potential weakness, and a reflection of multiple facts-of-life in modern markets.

After spending ~20-years dumping Gold (in the 90's/00's), Central Banks have spent the last 15-year undoing their previous mistake...

Reserves Diversification remains a key driver in the modern Gold bull market.
