A Rock and a Hard Place, and The Good Stuff In Between - a podcast by Lori Calvasina

This week in the podcast we run
through our latest thoughts on positioning within the US equity market with an
eye on longer-term trends through 2022, which has been the focus of our
conversations with investors in recent weeks. The big things you need to know:
1) We expect the Growth/Value trade to stay choppy through 2022. Once current
pressures on the Value trade resolve (primarily COVID and growth concerns), we
see another significant outperformance trade in Value in the intermediate term,
but suspect that will end up being the time to exit the trade. (2) As we start
to get ready for 2022 outlook discussions, we are getting more balanced between
Value/Cyclicals and Growth in our SandP 500 sector overweights. Our
Financials and Energy overweights remain, but we are lowering Materials from
overweight to market weight. We are also lifting Tech to overweight from market
weight. (3) High quality leadership has returned to the US equity market,
supporting our upgrade of Large Cap Tech.
