What’s ailing the market? Interest rates. On Aug. 18, there were big headlines that a “major manager” had just put a huge short on bonds – expecting yields to blow out. But on our podcast that day, we said that this particular hedge fund manager probably called the bottom in bonds and the top in rates by “shorting in the hole” one of the most crowded trades in history, explains Tom Hayes, founder of Hedge Fund Tips.
Now that we’ve had the 5% pullback we anticipated in recent weeks, many pundits are once again prognosticating the “beginning of the end.” When you dig under the surface, however, the clearer story looks like “the end of the beginning” and most stocks are just at the starting gate of major cyclical recoveries, shares Tom Hayes, Founder of Hedge Fund Tips.

There’s an old maxim, “The secret to happiness is low expectations.” This saying could not apply more directly than to what we are seeing coming into the Q2 earnings season. With consensus expectations looking as pessimistic as they were going into Q1 earnings season, the stage is set for another series of positive upside surprises, suggests Tom Hayes, founder of Hedge Fund Tips.
