Informe especial

En la Sección II, Jonathan presenta el argumento alcista para el dólar estadounidense durante el próximo año.

El gran y hermoso proyecto de ley del presidente Trump se aprobará pero enfrentará obstáculos a corto plazo y no ajustará el cinturón del gobierno. Se combinará con la implementación renovada de aranceles para generar un riesgo a corto plazo tanto para el mercado de bonos como para el mercado de valores. La crisis de Irán se desvaneció, salvando a Trump de un gran impacto petrolero que podría haber descarrilado su segundo mandato.

Recientemente, las acciones de pequeña capitalización han mostrado signos de superar al mercado. En este informe, examinamos si el repunte es sostenible analizando las tendencias estructurales a largo plazo, el contexto macroeconómico, el impacto de los aranceles y otros factores clave.

This month, we focus on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Our assessment in the Alpha report is that there won’t be any remaining alpha to harvest by shorting duration. The team that coined the “Human Steepener” moniker for President Trump is, effectively, throwing in the towel on looking for more upside to yields. There are many reasons for that view, but the main one is that the OBBBA legislation is just not that profligate, especially not relative to the investors’ expectations in the early days of the Trump 2.0 term.
