The tantrum in April was tough, but it has been a bountiful year, says today's guest. With an international trade policy that is proving to be less bad than expected for U.S. stocks, as well as the helpful tax and depreciation levers built into the One Big Beautiful Bill, the U.S. exceptionalism story rolls out news highs weekly. A continued expansion in spend for A.I. development provides a powerful platform for the A.I. trade in the year to come as well. Joining this episode to discuss what this may mean for investors and advisors alike is Fidelity Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer. Recorded on November 3, 2025.

2025 has shown some fascinating correlations. Some that we would never have expected, like utilities' performance at the levels of the S&P 500, and strange bed fellows vying for runner up status in the bull market on a year to date basis. As the world this week prepares for more detail on a possible US-China trade deal, a Fed move, and trillions of dollars' worth of earnings to be announced, markets power forward. Can this power extend sustainably to the smaller cap, or equally weighted version of the US markets, or is this the year for those massive tech giants to steal the spotlight, again? How does the Global bull market share the gains through the end of this year? Joining today's episode for a tour through charts and graphs that paint the picture of the market, is Fidelity Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer. Recorded on October 27, 2025.

We continue to power through bull market conditions, both on a secular and cyclical basis. A global well-spring of investment opportunities continues to broaden for investors, and technicals remain strong, for now. How will the upcoming earnings season impact the cyclical story? Will tariffs start to bite in a more meaningful way, or will policy changes stemming from the One Big Beautiful Bill kick in just in time? With the Cap-ex cycle for AI in relentless mode, today's guest says there is a lot to like about the current state of affairs for equity investors.

As the trade channels of a new, multipolar world begin to form, the investment thesis that could stick is a global bull market.

And what are investors to do with inflation?

While the equity bull market remains narrow, with tech leaders directionally powering indices higher, does the rest of the market make sense today? And where in this market do newer assets, or newer asset allocations, take their place in the leaderboard? Where do gold, bitcoin, and bonds of all stripes rank? Does their current placement hold for the months and years ahead, as we settle into a space of fiscal dominance? Today's guest says that the earnings, buybacks and margins stories are indeed underwriting stock strength, despite a chaotic macro-economic picture. Though, there are signs this secular bull market is a maturing one. Joining this episode to share with you his latest research and thoughts is Fidelity's Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer.

With trade deal announcements in full swing, global business leaders are pouring over whatever details can be found to show the emerging architecture of America's new trade connections. This week looks to major central banks in Canada and the U.S for decisions about whether to cut or hold interest rates, as well as for commentary from the BoC and the Fed on how to thread the needle between 'overly restrictive' and 'fighting future inflation'.

The market climb continues with earnings season now in full swing. Companies reporting thus far have been able to meet, beat and release some more guidance - after a semi-paralysis in communication due to the tariff unknowns. While tariffs are still unknowns, the one big beautiful bill has passed and a larger pond for investors to fish in has opened up across the globe. Concerns about the Fed and the bond market are not going away, as this wall of worry continues to be tackled.

With a monster week of earnings around the corner and high flyers in the crypto and Mag7 space, what is the rest of the market signalling? Still resilience?

Stock markets have shrugged off multiple layers of risk over the last week to sit in the all-time highs range. Today's guest says we are witnessing momentum, which usually begets more momentum. Is this the case in today's market? How can investors evaluate which signals will inform us about caution, and which signals may help drive equities higher? On a macro level, can U.S. growth peak out, and pass from behind the certain debt drag that has been signed into law via the Big Beautiful Bill? Joining today's episode with research to help you wade through the slightly foggy, but potentially bullish picture is Fidelity's Head of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer. Recorded on July 7, 2025.

Hoover Institution Fellow Jon Hartley and Hedge Fund Investor Kyle Bass discuss Kyle's career and upbringing, the 2000s housing crisis, the 2010s European sovereign debt crisis, the rise and fall of Japan's economy, China's rising aggression and decoupling from the US, and why the US remains the best place in the world to continue to invest as an innovation hub.  Recorded on June 13, 2025. ABOUT THE SERIES: Each episode of Capitalism and Freedom in the 21st Century, a video podcast series and the official podcast of the Hoover Economic Policy Working Group, focuses on getting into the weeds of economics, finance, and public policy on important current topics through one-on-one interviews. Host Jon Hartley asks guests about their main ideas and contributions to academic research and policy. The podcast is titled after Milton Friedman‘s famous 1962 bestselling book Capitalism and Freedom, which after 60 years, remains prescient from its focus on various topics which are now at the forefront of economic debates, such as monetary policy and inflation, fiscal policy, occupational licensing, education vouchers, income share agreements, the distribution of income, and negative income taxes, among many other topics.

The calm of last week's trade has given way to the global headlines, and various asset class reactions therein. The questions swirling through geopolitical gyrations in recent days have led to two curious reactions - in the bond trade and the US dollar. Both have been the haven trades for decades, and both are getting shaken as the global trade structures change beneath our feet. However, investors' money flows to other areas of the world, and, when valued at lower prices, back into US asset classes. Helping us digest these new moves via his weekly charts and graphs for you is Fidelity Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer. Recorded on June 16, 2025.

The global investment landscape is shifting beneath our feet, yet most investors remain fixated on US markets. Rohit Goel, Partner and Head of Global Macro at Breakout Capital, reveals why this myopia could prove costly in the years ahead.Rohit drives home an alarming point: US fiscal deficits running at 6.5-7% of GDP during economic expansion represent an understated risk that markets have largely ignored. "If it is any other country on this planet, you would see a reaction, whether in bond yields or currency," he explains. This fiscal vulnerability could eventually force global investors to demand higher risk premiums on US assets, catalyzing capital flows toward international alternatives.Where might this capital flow? Rohit points to markets starved of investment for fifteen years – Europe, Japan, and particularly emerging markets. Latin America stands at an inflection point with elections potentially delivering reform-minded leadership across major economies. Poland's investment-focused policies create another bright spot, while frontier markets from Nigeria to Sri Lanka implement meaningful reforms after pandemic-era financing constraints forced hard choices.Perhaps most valuable is Rohit's framework for emerging market investing: "In emerging markets, 65% of returns are attributable to country selection." Unlike developed markets where sector selection drives performance, getting the country right is paramount in emerging spaces. And while liquidity remains challenging, patient investors with two-to-five-year horizons stand to benefit as capital eventually follows performance.Rohit also dispels a common misconception about dollar cycles. The currency's likely depreciation over the next several years represents a normal economic cycle unrelated to reserve currency status. Since 1975, the dollar has experienced multiple significant bear markets without losing its position in the global financial architecture.For investors willing to look beyond US borders, the coming years may offer extraordinary opportunities in markets long overlooked by global capital. The question is whether you'll position yourself ahead of this potential sea change or chase it after it's already underway.With ChatDOC, instantly analyze professional documents using AI — featuring word-level citations, chart/formula breakdowns, cross-file query, and full support for PDFs/epub/scanned files.Free version handles 10 documents (up to 3000 pages) and cross-searches 30 files.Click the link below to unlock +10 document slots : https://chatdoc.com?src=leadlaglive Sign up to The Lead-Lag Report on Substack and get 30% off the annual subscription today by visiting http://theleadlag.report/leadlaglive.

Markets rallied at the start of this week. In a significant development last weekend, the United States and China have agreed to a temporary trade deal. Negotiated in Geneva, the two countries will be drastically reducing tariffs on each other's goods. Announced as an initial 90-day pause, this major de-escalation demonstrates that both countries want to focus on easing the escalating tensions seen over the last few months. What does this announcement mean for U.S. and international markets going forward?

U.S. equity markets are under pressure this morning following further tariff threats by President Trump. But as today's guest notes, we've now seen twice that sharp market selloffs have prompted the administration to retreat from its more extreme tariff measures. What clues might this tell us about spreads? And with a Federal Reserve announcement this week, might policymakers have no option but to stay on hold?
