Macro views

All aboard the crazy train

August 14, 2024 - 2 min read

Jack Janasiewicz and Brian Hess discuss the recent market correction, economic environment, potential rate cuts, the yen carry trade, and positioning in the Natixis model portfolios. Hear more about:

  • Why they believe the economic backdrop is slowing vs. slow – a big difference – and why we have landed in a soft patch vs. a recession. 
  • Although there is slowing economic data, the labor market is a key metric and is still in good shape. Workers have jobs; are earning solid, positive, real wages; and are going to continue to spend. 
  • Why the Fed will likely introduce a series of interest-rate cuts starting in September and then, at some point pause, but it probably won’t be a sustained and prolonged rate-cutting cycle. 
  • Why the unwinding of the yen carry trade has adversely impacted risk appetite in general, which forced other things to matriculate in a massive recast of leveraged trades across many different asset classes. 
  • How the model portfolios remain focused on US stocks as a preferred venue.
