Core Viewpoint - Despite concerns over "de-dollarization" and simultaneous declines in stocks, bonds, and currencies, the U.S. stock market has outperformed global markets and reached new historical highs, with the Nasdaq rebounding 35% from its lows [1] Group 1: Market Performance - U.S. stocks have shown strong performance, leading global markets since the end of April and reaching historical highs [2] - After a brief outflow, funds have re-entered U.S. stocks and bonds, indicating renewed investor confidence [4][6] Group 2: Misconceptions about the Dollar and Stocks - There are two prevalent misconceptions: equating a weaker dollar with "de-dollarization" and assuming that a weak dollar leads to falling U.S. stocks [8] - The consensus on "de-dollarization" may face short-term challenges, with potential for a slight dollar rebound and U.S. stocks to outperform again in Q4 [8] Group 3: Impact of the "Big Beautiful Bill" - The "Big Beautiful Bill" (OBBBA) addresses the debt ceiling, extends tax cuts, reduces spending, and cancels certain provisions, significantly impacting fiscal policy [12][13] - The bill raises the debt ceiling by $5 trillion, allowing the Treasury to continue issuing debt to meet obligations [13] - It is projected to increase the basic deficit by $3.4 trillion over the next decade, with total deficits including interest reaching $4.1 trillion [21] Group 4: Economic Implications - The bill is expected to avoid fiscal contraction, supporting the credit cycle and preventing significant expansion of the deficit due to increased tariff revenues [15][21] - Government credit is anticipated to improve in the second half of the year, with a fiscal pulse potentially improving to 0.6% [15][21] Group 5: Liquidity and Bond Supply - The resolution of the debt ceiling will lead to a short-term increase in bond supply, with an estimated net issuance of $1 trillion in Q3 [25][27] - This increase in supply may create liquidity pressures, similar to the situation observed in Q3 2023, which could affect bond yields and stock valuations [27][32] Group 6: Future Outlook - Short-term liquidity disruptions may provide reallocation opportunities, with expectations of two Fed rate cuts this year, bringing the central tendency of bond yields to around 4.2% [38][39] - The U.S. credit cycle is expected to restart, driven by strong AI investments and fiscal improvements, supporting a potential rise in the S&P 500 index to a range of 6000-6200 points [39]
