About this episode
This episode discusses the decline in major US equity indices and the market's rotation into defensive sectors amidst ongoing geopolitical tensions.
Major US equity indices were down this week. The big story this week was the dip in semis/memory and select AI names, accompanied by a rotation into defensives, financials, and healthcare. There was no real movement on the US-Iran conflict despite last week's hopes that a memorandum of understanding was close that could lead to a 60-day ceasefire and further negotiation on sticking points.
