Episode notes
Rattled Market Is Oil And War Driven
- The market's recent selloff is driven more by exogenous war-related oil risk than by fundamentals.
- Dan Greenhaus points out hundreds of individual stocks are down 10–20% while headline indexes are down ~8.5%, tied to oil and Middle East uncertainty.
Sentiment Trumps Fundamentals For Now
- Sentiment, not fundamentals, is steering today's moves despite positive earnings revisions.
- Abby Yoder warns rising bond yields imply a stagflationary backdrop that could prevent Fed rate cuts and pressure equities.
Bear Case Still Recession Based Not War Panic
- Abby's bear case hasn't changed and assumes a normal recession scenario, not necessarily a geopolitically driven one.
- She models a 15–17% drawdown unless oil stays at $125 for months, using early 1990s as a corollary.
