Episode notes
Labor Market Weakness Is Cyclical
- The US labor market is weakening via falling job openings, rising initial claims, and elevated underemployment.
- Adam Kobeissi sees this as cyclical disruption amplified by AI, not a 2008-style collapse.
Own Assets; Buy Dips
- Buy assets rather than sitting on the sidelines because easier Fed policy plus AI CapEx should fuel a search for yield.
- Expect volatility and occasional drawdowns, but treat dips as buying opportunities.
Fed Cuts With Records Usually Boost Stocks
- Historically, when the Fed cuts with the S&P near record highs, the S&P has ended higher 12 months later.
- Kobeissi cites an average gain near 15% and uses that as a base-case for a higher S&P in 12 months.
