Clarifying our Macro thoughts
Dear James, Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the opportunities & where the market is heading. I particularly like your macro analysis. Please explain what’s the relationship between Usd and growth or IT stock? I understand that you think usd will range bound between 88-95 for the next few months. I don’t understand why you suggested to buy & overweight growth & IT when usd reach 88. If usd is 88 then bond yield will be low which is favorable for growth & IT. So why would we overweight IT when USD hits 88 esp if usd will go back to 95 as predicted by you? If usd reach 95 the bond yield would rise & will be negative for growth & IT. It makes more sense to me to sell IT & growth when usd reach 88 rather than overload. On the other hand overloading resource at usd 95 makes sense as resource benefits from a drop in usd. Is this the reason why you suggest loading resources when usd hits 95? Richard Ho.
