<li>Happy Sunday from Copenhagen! My apologies for the slightly later release of the Steno Signals Sunday editorial.</li>
<li>We are in the process of moving, making Sundays a work-at-home day instead of a woke-from-home day!It’s been a tricky few weeks for high-beta risk assets, and with high-level voices such as Bill Dudley calling for imminent rate cuts, we are at the stage of the cycle where many people are getting scared of the equity/high-beta momentum.</li>
<li>It is admittedly true that “cyclicals” have front-run a re-ignition of economic momentum to an extent that speaks in favor of a rotation in equity markets.</li>
