Investors are in a weird place where: - U.S. investors are overexposed to the U.S. - Some Global investors are all-in the U.S. - Some Global investors are still stuck in home country bias planet. And everyone thinks they’re diversified. #investing #stocks #markets #diversification

S&P 500 just erased a 15% YTD decline in 6 weeks First time since 1982 we've seen this kind of reversal I had my spreadsheet open ready to "buy the dip" Then Trump folded on tariffs like a house of cards 🫠 The market doesn't care about your perfect entry point #TimingIsFutile #stocks

The S&P just had its best two-week stretch in years. So why does everything feel so bad? According to economists: Maybe consumers are pulling forward spending to stay ahead of tariffs or inflation. Maybe it’s just lag? Maybe this, maybe that... 🤣 #markets #stocks #investors

JPM’s Michael Cembelest on the current market: 1) Markets hate Chaos: The market is a voting machine, and it’s casting a vote of NO confidence. Investors expected a balance of pro-growth and anti-growth policies, but the admin has led with tariffs, regulatory shakeups, and economic uncertainty.
