The familiar narrative of foreign markets poised to outshine the U.S. has once again emerged. Yet, time and again, America’s markets have proven these expectations wrong. Fueled by relentless innovation,
The Republican clean sweep in Washington has set the stage for what many are calling “Trumponomics 2.0.” With the deck now stacked in their favor, we’re being dealt a new

U.S. Equities U.S. stocks extended their rally in Q3, led by technology and rebounding from prior trade-policy turbulence. Despite ongoing uncertainty from Washington, corporate earnings remained broadly upbeat. The S&P 500 (+8.1%), Nasdaq (+11.4%), and Dow (+5.7%) all finished higher as investors looked past policy noise. In September, the Federal Reserve delivered its first rate cut of the year, citing
Q2 2025 Market Commentary: Equities, Tariffs & Fixed-Income Outlook Table of Contents Domestic Equities At first glance, the 2nd quarter market commentary appears positive, with major indexes ending near their highs. However, despite a strong performance, the sentiment of 777usd stock remained cautious due to external risks, such as trade tensions and fiscal policies, which could affect future market trends.
Domestic Equities U.S. equity markets posted steep declines in the first quarter of 2025, rattled by escalating trade tensions, fading enthusiasm for AI-driven growth, and signs of softening economic momentum. The S&P 500 fell 5.8%, the Nasdaq Composite dropped 7.3%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 4.2%, marking the worst quarterly performance since 2022. Tariff-related headlines dominated the quarter.
Domestic Equities U.S. equity markets experienced broad gains in the fourth quarter, marked by significant shifts in market leadership. Early in the quarter, the so-called “Trump Trade” drove small caps, financials, and other cyclical sectors to the forefront as investors anticipated policy benefits from a Trump victory. However, after the election and as the quarter progressed, this trend lost momentum.
Global equity markets sustained their upward trajectory in the third quarter, although the ride was bumpier than in previous months. Several key factors contributed to this volatility, including concerns about the U.S. economy and labor markets, the unwinding of the USD-Yen carry trade, global central banks beginning their rate-cutting cycles, and China’s announcement of a significant economic stimulus package. Investors
The economic momentum from the first quarter of 2024 continued into the second, resulting in another positive period for equity markets. Initial concerns over central bank rate cuts due to strong April data eased, reviving hopes for a soft landing. Inflation in the services sector remained a concern, reducing expected rate cuts by Western central banks. U.S. equities performed well,
Global asset class performance in the first quarter of 2024 diverged after a strong rally in the final months of 2023, as markets adjusted expectations for policy rate cuts in major developed economies. While the US saw robust 3.4% GDP growth in Q4 2023, the UK and Europe entered a technical recession. China’s ongoing property sector challenges weighed on its
After a shaky start to the quarter, US equities experienced a significant rally following the Federal Reserve’s indications that interest rate cuts could be on the horizon. Domestic Equities After a shaky start to the quarter, US equities experienced a significant rally following the Federal Reserve’s indications that interest rate cuts could be on the horizon. Concurrently, there was an
The third quarter of 2023 saw the euphoric optimism that propelled the “Magnificent Seven” stocks and broad indices higher, abruptly give way to renewed concerns regarding the Federal Reserve’s policy action, or future inaction. The initial vigor of July, extending the strong uptrend from the first half of the year, gave way to a notable shift in sentiment during August
