📉 Global currencies are moving in one direction, U.S. stocks in another. Who’s right? In today’s video, I break down the major divergence between the equity markets and global currencies like the Taiwan dollar, Korean won, and Swiss franc. While the S&P 500 pushes to new highs, the U.S. dollar is weakening almost everywhere. What are currency markets pricing in that equity investors are ignoring—especially with the July 9 tariff deadline approaching?
💡 We’ll cover:
- The Taiwan dollar’s sharp moves since April
- Why repatriation flows might signal something deeper
- What the euro, yen, and peso are saying about U.S. risk
- How interest rate differentials are breaking down
- Why the currency market may be smarter than the stock market right now 👀
- If you follow markets beyond the headlines, this is a divergence you don’t want to miss.
Every day, I provide you with FREE insights and commentaries to help you stay informed about market movements. Now, Navigating The Market is celebrating its rebranding from The Market Chronicles alongside the Fourth of July holiday by offering an exclusive 15% discount on both the annual subscription and my Advanced Topics plan.
Leveraging my extensive experience from both domestic and international buy-side perspectives, my previous role as a trader involved a deep understanding of market dynamics and effectively communicating these insights to portfolio managers. Now, I analyze market movements daily to uncover trends and identify opportunities. My analysis spans beyond the stock market, covering various asset classes and global markets to provide a comprehensive view. If you’ve been following my FREE daily commentary, you already know how I translate macro events into actionable insights, highlighting how various market segments might respond.
Navigating The Market is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
My approach goes beyond the U.S. markets—it’s global. The free YouTube video above demonstrates this best, as it makes connections that others may not. Understanding international markets and global economic indicators is crucial, as all markets are interconnected. Recognizing these connections helps uncover a wider range of potential outcomes.
My goal isn’t to dictate your investment decisions—that’s entirely up to you. Instead, I provide comprehensive information, offer clear explanations, and discuss likely market reactions to keep you informed and ahead of trends.
Of course, market analysis involves uncertainty; some insights will hit the mark while others might miss. That comes with the territory. If you’ve enjoyed my free daily commentary and YouTube videos, I’m confident you’ll appreciate the expanded insights and analysis available exclusively to members.
