Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Defends @DOGE

@SecScottBessent:

"25% of the GDP of the US pulsates through (Washington, DC) every day."

"And everybody wants to just skim a little."

"I said to @elonmusk, 'You know, people are mad at you because you're moving their cheese.'"

"And he goes, 'It's not their cheese, it's the American people's cheese.'"

@friedberg:

"100%. Every dollar spent goes into someone's pocket and that person is going to fight tooth and nail to get that dollar to keep flowing into their pocket."

"And then it takes a while for the flow of that money to find its way, or those individuals to find their way back into the productive private economy."

" That's where I think there's a big gap and a big challenge in the perception of the actions that are going on with the changes right now."

"Everyone sees the cuts, but they don't see the benefits. And that's 9 months, 12 months, 15 months down the road."

"And that's a really hard thing to reconcile for most."

Secretary Bessent:

 "Everyone's hearing cuts and they think their government services are going to get cut."

"And they're not. I keep saying, it's the Department of Government Efficiency, not government extinction, not government elimination."

Thanks to our partners for making the DC trip happen:

This is interesting:

~90% of foreign stock indices have outperformed the US over the last 21 days, the highest percentage since the 2022 bear market.

The share has doubled over the last three weeks as the S&P 500 has pulled back -6.5%.

Over the same time period, the German Dax has risen +2.1% while the Japanese Nikkei 225 has declined -1.4%.

Canada's stock market, the TSX Composite has fallen -0.7% during the same period.

Meanwhile, the UK’s FTSE 100 index has been roughly unchanged.

Will US stocks outperform over the next few weeks?

This is pretty wild.

An editor from The Atlantic was accidentally added to a group chat planning the Houthi military strikes.

He allegedly received top secret information on the strike hours before it happened. https://t.co/imeNpNOgyK

Are hedge funds fading this rally?

Hedge fund exposure to Magnificent 7 stocks is down 8 percentage points, a LARGER drop than the 2022 bear market.

As a result, the Magnificent 7 has erased -$3 TRILLION in market cap.

What is institutional capital telling us?

Foreign investors are selling US stocks:

Foreign investors withdrew ~$6 BILLION from US equities funds last week, the 3rd largest amount on record.

Only March 2020 and the March 2023 Banking Crisis saw bigger weekly outflows.

This coincides with ~$4 billion of inflows into European stocks over the last 4 weeks, the most in 10 years.

However, foreigners still own ~$16 TRILLION of US equities, near an all-time high.

This reflects ~23% of the total US stock market's value.

Sentiment continues to see rapid swings.
