Back in July 2018, even before, we began hearing (constantly) about how the yield curve and especially the 10-year note was no longer a reliable indicator. It just couldn’t have been. Why?

Unlucky number thirteen. Sunday marks the thirteenth anniversary of the day in which everything changed. It hasn’t yet dawned on history because the history of this age hasn’t yet been written. It’s been scribbled down in notes and anecdotes, of course, as we’ve moved slowly along the X axis further toward the right. Yet it’s the Y axis where together [...]

Is three weeks a new record? That’s about how long Jay Powell’s performance bought him across most major markets.

Our Fortress strategic asset allocation includes 5 distinct asset classes: The Fortress allocation has historically produced better risk-adjusted returns than the traditional 60% stocks/40% bonds allocation. The bond allocation is varied to adjust the risk of the portfolio.
