Institutional Investor Sentiment Finally Takes A Hit

This week in the podcast, we discuss the latest developments in investor and earnings sentiment, which we’ve been keeping a close eye on this month, as well as a few thoughts on the rotation out of growth we’ve been seeing this week. Three big things you need to know. First, institutional investor positioning has finally taken a hit. Second, earnings sentiment has continued to deteriorate, driven by cyclicals and supply chain concerns, but so far the damage has been concentrated in a few sectors. Third, we think there’s more to the rotation out of Growth this week than higher bond yields, but regardless this rotation has become another catalyst for downside in the US equity market in the near-term. Our bottom line, as we think across all of these issues, is that the volatility we’ve been in as regards to the broader US equity market likely isn’t done yet.
