• Economy & Labor: AI Adoption and Labor Market Dynamics Accelerating AI adoption is reshaping labor markets, with businesses increasingly turning to automation for cost control and productivity gains.

 

• Fixed Income & Technicals: Fed Policy, Debt, and Market Breadth The Federal Reserve’s policy and fiscal deficits will be key for fixed income, while technical indicators show a resilient uptrend but rising concentration risk in equities.

 

• STAAC Commentary: Asset Allocation and Market Positioning STAAC maintains a tactical neutral stance on equities and core bonds, favoring growth and large caps, and advises investors to prepare for volatility amid broadly supportive fundamentals.
