Market Momentum Brief
Macro Traders Take the Spotlight
Hedge funds specializing in macroeconomic trends are gaining favor, says a recent SocGen survey of over 300 institutional firms. With volatility driven by inflation, tariffs, and currency swings, investors are reallocating towards managers who trade global shifts. Macro is now top-of-mind for allocators seeking to exploit regime changes rather than individual earnings signals. This marks a significant pivot from traditional equity-based strategies and emphasizes how critical macro awareness has become amid unpredictable fiscal policies and international tensions.
Ceasefire Plan for Gaza Emerges
A leaked U.S. proposal calls for a 60-day ceasefire and hostage swap in Gaza. The multi-stage plan outlines phased prisoner releases and humanitarian access—marking a potential turning point after months of conflict. The strategy includes coordination with Egypt and Qatar, suggesting a high-stakes regional effort. As diplomats weigh in, analysts note the potential effects on defense stocks, energy prices, and broader geopolitical sentiment.
Trump Tower Vietnam Eyes 2025 Start
Plans for a $1B Trump Tower in Hanoi are taking shape, with sources suggesting construction could begin as early as next year. The proposed skyscraper would become the brand’s second major overseas project in Asia. Regulatory approval and funding remain pending. Such international expansion amid legal scrutiny back home could add complexity to the Trump Organization’s strategy going into an election year.
Fed Rate Cut Bets Hold as Inflation Slows
As March PCE inflation cools to 2.3%, traders maintain bets on a September rate cut, with a second one eyed in December. The Fed’s target remains 2%, but deceleration is giving doves some confidence. Equities rallied slightly on the release, and expectations are growing that monetary policy will lean dovish into Q4. Some analysts suggest further easing might come sooner if labor data softens further.
