The macroeconomic headwinds are blowing harder than ever. Hopes for a Middle East peace deal are fading, pushing oil past $106 a barrel and driving the 10-year Treasury yield to its highest level since 2007. Meanwhile, tech giants are ignoring the noise and doubling down on the AI arms race, with AMD launching an $8.2 billion acquisition and Nvidia announcing a record-shattering $150 billion buyback. Ryan Isherwood, Founder and CIO of Significance Capital Management, unpacks why today's market is "hollow at the highs". We discuss the persistent threat of "higher for longer" interest rates, the hidden credit risks brewing within the massive AI spending spree, and whether we are finally reaching a secular turning point where value stocks dethrone growth.
