About this episode

The episode discusses investment opportunities in US equities and highlights market trends in high price momentum and EPS estimate revisions.

The big things you need to know: First, the investors we met with this past week, in our trip to London and Switzerland, were keen to explore other opportunities in US equities beyond Semis/Tech/AI, but had difficulty envisioning what those were. Second, we highlight continued outperformance of high price momentum in our factor work and what we’re seeing in our valuation work for this part of the market, a pick up in the rate of upward EPS estimate revisions for the S&P 500 as reporting season slows down, and the signal we’re currently getting from S&P 500 and Russell 2000 forward P/Es – things are moving up but aren’t universally back to their 2025 and early 2026 highs.
