In this edition of

the podcast, we reflect on hot topics and some of the most interesting things we saw and heard last week. Three big things you need to know: First, we revisited the international revenue exposure of the major US indices and sectors. The data suggests to us that as long as the stronger US Dollar is a problem for US companies, that Small Caps and Large Cap Value are the best places to be. Second, with more than half of S&P 500 results in, the softening in the EPS-related stats that we track has become more significant, though we still think there’s another round of clean-up to forecasts that will need to happen in early 2023. Third, sentiment on the growth trade and the new economy has been deeply pessimistic, but it’s been even worse in Small Caps and the old economy.
