  • The market's 'problem' is valuations, this strategist says

    The market (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) seems to breathe a sigh of relief after tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada were delayed. Barclays head of US equity strategy Venu Krishna sits down with Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton on Market Domination to discuss his concerns about the policy environment around President Trump's tariff threats and China's own retaliatory tariffs. "Ever since the election, I would argue that the market has been disproportionately pricing the good news that is the pro-growth policies like deregulation [and tax cuts] are being priced quite optimistically," Krishna says. "What is not being priced is the impact of a more aggressive stance on immigration and a more aggressive stance on tariffs, because if you talk to the majority of the economists, the view is that these two, tariffs and immigration, on the margin are definitely more inflationary and will have a negative impact on growth," he adds, explaining that "the question" is "to what extent is that a buffer to some extent for the pro-growth policies?" The strategist highlights accelerating earnings growth but notes, "The problem for this market is on the valuation front." "I'm not arguing [valuations are] rich, but it's quite fully valued," he says, adding that what that means is "any negative catalyst" could be especially impactful for the market.

  • More crowded US dollar trade ramps up expectations for euro parity: Reuters poll

    A crowded strong U.S. dollar trade is set to get more bunched up in coming months, with near one-third of currency strategists polled by Reuters now expecting the euro to fall to parity with the dollar or below versus only one-fifth last month. The greenback has been on a rampage since late September, soaring over 7% against a basket of major currencies and hammering the euro down to almost $1.01 on Feb. 3 - just a whisker away from parity, a milestone last hit in November 2022. Recent data from the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission also showed swathes of speculators piling on "bullish" dollar trade, stretching net-long bets to a near-decade high last month.
