Todd Gordon also talks about the portfolio changes he's made to navigate this environment.
TL;DR
- Inside Edge Capital has undertaken three tactical portfolio reallocations, marking the most active start to the year.
- The firm has re-deployed index hedges, reducing holdings in materials, financials, and technology, and increasing positions in short-term treasury ETFs and inverse NASDAQ ETFs.
- Holdings in gold stocks were reduced due to rising real interest rates and a strengthening dollar, despite geopolitical events.
- Exposure to emerging markets was cut as the U.S. benefits from safe haven flows, and emerging market debt becomes more expensive to service with a rising dollar and interest rates.
- The overall portfolio adjustment reflects a more cautious approach to navigate current tricky and range-bound markets.
