2 tailwinds that could send small caps higher in 2025

The Russell 2000 (^RUT) small cap index was edging lower Tuesday morning as the index has moved nearly 3% lower over the past five days (at the time of this video’s posting on Tuesday). As Wall Street investors and retail traders have shifted in and out of the tech trade, in preference to small caps, are there more catalysts on the horizon to push this trend even further? Glenmede VP of Investment Strategy Mike Reynolds finds there to be two major tailwinds for the small-cap market: fairer valuations and earnings growth expectations ahead of 2025. “Going into 2025, we’re expecting some pretty meaningfully better, better [growth] results. Twenty percent-plus, whether […]

Election Day 2024: One sector to watch

Voters across America are deciding between electing Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump as the 47th US president. Evercore senior strategist Matthew Aks joins Market Domination to break down what each candidate’s respective policy agendas would mean for markets and the economy. “I think there are a few clear spots where you’re going to see major differences between Trump and Harris show up quite quickly,” Aks told Yahoo Finance. He notes that if Harris were to win, sectors like energy, healthcare, and financials could benefit. Conversely, a Trump win could lead to “big structural shifts” in areas like tariffs and immigration policy. However, Aks believes the federal […]

Strategist questions Fed’s 50 bps supercut

The bond market bounces higher after the better-than-expected September jobs report indicated the labor market may be stronger than previously expected. George Catrambone, head of fixed income and head of trading at DWS Group, joins Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton on Market Domination to outline his view that the Federal Reserve’s September 50 basis cut may have been preemptive and what it means for the fixed income market going forward.

But the data […]

Ian Bremmer: Israel wanted a reason to strike Iran

Middle Eastern conflict has escalated following Iran’s missile strike on Israel on Tuesday. Eurasia Group Founder & President Ian Bremmer joins Market Domination to discuss the aftermath of this intensifying geopolitical situation. Bremmer notes that Iran’s strike on Israel was “significantly greater” and posed considerably more danger than the strike back in April, when the Iranians sought to retaliate for the assassination of a leader in Tehran. He points out that the strike on Israel was telegraphed to the Americans, allowing Israel to implement defenses and safety measures. As a result, Bremmer observes, “it was very hard for Iranians to cause any significant damage.” “They clearly tried to meet in […]

Americans struggle to balance finances, retirement saving

New data from Principal reveals that less than 50% of Americans believe they can manage their current finances while also planning for the future. Principal’s President of Retirement & Income Solutions Chris Littlefield discusses why this perception may not reflect reality for most people. Littlefield points out that inflation has significantly impacted American consumers. The combination of rising prices and the depletion of pandemic savings is causing individuals to “really feel that stress,” he says. While many Americans may feel that saving for retirement while managing current finances is unattainable, Littlefield notes there is still “a big effort” among Americans to save. However, Littlefield highlights a concerning gender gap in […]
