Fed Chair Powell’s term ends in 13 months, yet new Fed Chair candidates are already being discussed.
The Trump Administration knows economic weakness is coming from tariffs in 2025.
This sets up perfectly for 2026 to be the year of interest rate cuts and economic stimulus, with the newly appointed Fed Chair.
Play the market you have, not the market you want.

Capital is rushing to the sidelines:
In March, hedge funds conducted their most aggressive selling of world stocks since 2013, according to Goldman Sachs data.
Not even the 2020 pandemic saw such a sharp exposure reduction in global equities.
This was particularly driven by hedge funds dumping US technology stocks.
This also contributed to the largest S&P 500 underperformance versus global stocks in 16 years during Q1 2025.
The rush to the sidelines is real.
