This podcast from 42 Macro delves into whether current market conditions justify 'buying the dip.' It discusses the modest rebound in U.S. equities post-Monday’s selloff against the backdrop of policy missteps by the Trump administration, which may signal a shift away from U.S. assets. The conversation covers portfolio strategies favoring defensive assets with a focus on dollar cost averaging, quantitative signals from models like GRID and the Macro Weather Model, and the prevailing deflationary regime in the market. Additional discussion includes risks from unpredictable fiscal and trade policies, shifting equity inflows to Europe, and tactical advice when scaling into gold and Treasurys, including addressing a client’s question on transitioning out of long-duration U.S. Treasurys.
