In today's August Dynamic Brands Update, I talk about the market returns along with what styles & sectors are doing YTD. I talk about the global brands portfolio, winners & laggards. I also highlight how crowded tech and semiconductor exposures are currently and how hated consumer stocks are. That's a wonderful contrarian signal. I talk about the health of the consumer, different income cohorts, and the general sentiment amongst consumers. I end with the risks we see in markets and with the Fed as well as the wonderful trading markets we have today and what trades we have ten in August.
