Recession-Hard/Soft Landing

米国の経済データが夏の数か月に安定の明確な兆候を示した場合、リセッション予測を撤回します。しかし、現時点ではそれは起きていません。株式への控えめなアンダーウェイトを維持しつつ、MacroQuantのエクイティzスコアが-1を下回った場合には、より防御的な姿勢を取ることを検討してください。

2025年7月のポートフォリオ配分サマリー。

6月の雇用統計は失業率のわずかな低下を示し、今月後半のFRB利下げの可能性を排除する結果となりました。

投資家はポートフォリオにおいて株式を控えめにアンダーウェイトにし、不況の具体的な兆しが見え次第、より積極的にディフェンシブな姿勢に転じるべきです。私たちはこれが数ヶ月以内に起こると考えています。

The US economy has held up better so far this year than we had expected. For the time being, investors should remain modestly underweight equities. A more aggressive underweight would be justified only once the “whites of the recession’s eyes” are visible.

For now, measures of labor market utilization (like the unemployment rate) are only gradually weakening. But we know from history that these trends have a habit of quickly accelerating in advance of recession.

Right now, the major stock and bond markets are more ‘anti-fragile’ than fragile, and the Joshi rule recession indicators signal that a US recession is not imminent. This justifies a neutral, or default, tactical weighting to both stocks and bonds until a major market does become fragile, or until recession risk elevates. The one major price trend that is fragile is the 65-day selloff in the US dollar, which justifies a tactical overweighting to the dollar.
