Global equity markets surged in February despite hawkish Fed commentary and stubborn inflationary pressures which are calling into question the likelihood of Fed rate cuts. U.S. equity markets were higher for the fourth straight month with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq closing out the month at record highs. Bond yields continued to move higher as investors grappled with the expectations of the Fed not cutting rates as aggressively as anticipated. In this weekly, we review the month of February from an economic and asset class perspective

What Does the Super Bowl Mean for the Markets? (a little post-game trivia)

Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs for winning Super Bowl LVIII. They were the first team to win back to back Super Bowls since the New England Patriots accomplished it about 20 years ago (2003-2004). The Super Bowl is always a bittersweet celebration as we binge on fried food and salty snacks but wake the next day to the realization that football season is over…for now. Therefore, to cheer up football fans we wanted to offer some interesting tidbits about what the Super Bowl has meant for the financial markets.

- Strong jobs and wage data, late in the week, confirm that the environment is right for inflation to potentially hang around.

Here's our take on the Crypto ETFs...

On January 10th, 2024, the SEC approved the first U.S. listed ETFs that track the price of Bitcoin . This recent approval marks a milestone for cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin specifically, offering investors direct exposure to the underlying asset in the form of spot-price ETFs. This week, we wanted to provide investors with insights into the new products and what they mean for the cryptocurrency space.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

-On January 10th the SEC approved the first U.S. listed Bitcoin ETFs.
-Spot-price ETFs allow investors direct exposure to the underlying asset.
-Approval adds a layer of regulatory oversight to an otherwise questionable market.
-Security risks remain a key component investors should consider.
-Similar product releases signal trouble may be ahead.
