VIDEO: The “summer of small caps” appears to be triggering a rotation out of large-cap as noted by Mark Newton, Head of Technical Strategy.  Also, the collapse of existing home sales is further signal for Fed to make cuts sooner = good for small-caps

Two key developments this week (so far).  First, technical confirmation of the small-cap breakout and second, evidence this is funded by rotation out of large-caps.

There are two notable developments this week: first, there is now “technical confirmation” of the small-cap breakout (“summer of small-caps”) and second, new evidence this is funded by a rotation out of large-caps.

  • Three weeks into July, and the Russell 2000 is up +9.7% while S&P 500 up +1.7%. Previously, we had confidence that a sizable rally for small-caps would ensue, but we had initially thought this would be funded by the $6 trillion of cash on the sidelines.
  • Evidence of this rotation happened this evening. After the close, TSLA 4.30%  and GOOGL 1.27%  GOOG 1.73%  beat revenue and EPS expectations. But both stocks fell in after hours:
    – TSLA down -8%
    – GOOGL GOOG -2%
  • Why are the large-caps weaker? The related outlooks have been solid. In our view, this is mostly a consolidation after the sizable gains posted in the past few months. After all, the Nasdaq 100 QQQ 0.36%  is still up +17% YTD.
  • Mark Newton, Head of Technical Strategy, notes there is meaningful technical confirmation of this breakout in small-caps. Please read his note from last evening for full context. But here are some highlights:
    – strength of move IWM -0.24%  relative to SPY 0.04%  so powerful likely additional near-term outperformance
    – initial target $244, which is 2021 highs
    – Newton expects IWM to show absolute and relative strength over the next 4-6 weeks
    – IWM vs SPY is now arguably breaking out on a weekly basis 
    – further suggesting a runup into late August/early September.
  • He also notes that a rotation away from large-cap Technology could be underway. This also suggests a consolidation for the S&P 500:
    – SPY also means that Technology likely will lag Small-caps given its large percentage within SPY
  • This is aligning with our general expectation that the most important near-term investment idea is “summer of small-caps” — we are still constructive on the S&P 500 overall, but see this as the most compelling near term opportunity.
  • We have previously discussed the fundamental drivers behind this, and that is:
    – Rising probabilities of a Trump White House
    – Rising probabilities of a Fed cut within the next 8 weeks
    – Just one of the two need to happen, but both are possible
  • A Trump White House does have meaningful sector implications. We have talked about this in the past but the overall impact is:
    Positive Bitcoin
    Positive Small-caps
    – Positive regional banks
    – Positive CRE
    – Positive de-regulation
    – Positive M&A
    Positive Cyclicals
    Negative Energy
    Negative Healthcare
  • When the Fed starts cutting, the impact on sectors is as follows:
    Positive Bitcoin
    Positive Small-caps
    Positive regional banks
    Positive CRE
    Positive M&A

    Positive Cyclicals
    Negative Energy
    Negative Healthcare
  • The case for small-caps has to do with multiple factors including less regulation, more support for regional banks/CRE (40% of Russell 2000 IWM -0.24% ) and higher CEO confidence, which drives mergers. So there are multiple factors. By the way, the sectors benefitting from Fed cuts are small-caps, Industrials and Financials. So a Trump win or Fed cut support the same sector relative performance.
  • The Fed case for cuts is also premised on the idea that inflation is falling like a rock. And we should get some confirmation later this week with the release of June Core PCE on Friday.
  • But it is also premised on high real rates (Fed funds vs inflation) have created recessions in:
    – recession in durable goods
    – recession in auto sales
    – recession in housing
    – these inflect to recovery as soon as Fed cuts
  • June existing home sales tanked (released today) to 3.89mm vs Street 3.99mm and fallen for 5 consecutive months, despite flat mortgage rates. In fact, cities like Nashville see record price cuts of 35% or more (or listings). This is further argument for the Fed to cut sooner, perhaps even in July.

Bottom line: Summer of small-caps remains intact

This remains the summer of small-caps, in our view. We stay constructive.

More broadly, our strategy recommendations remain, we stick with what is working. Keep in mind, that a short-term rotation away from Technology likely is underway:

History also shows stocks strong in first half, outperform in the second half. Thus, we favor those S&P 500 names which gained >30% in 1H24. These are shown below.
