In this episode, experts explore the implications of a weakening U.S. dollar amid speculation of policy shifts at the upcoming G7 summit, particularly under the Trump administration’s approach to enhancing manufacturing competitiveness. The discussion delves into how coordinated currency policies, alongside populist fiscal expansion, align with broader market trends such as rising multinational earnings and bullish risk assets. Listeners gain insights into the KISS portfolio’s strategic shifts—illustrated by recent moves into Bitcoin and the S&P 500—as well as systematic models (like Dr. Mo and the GRID and Macro Weather Models) that guide market positioning in a REFLATION regime.
