Most financials are above their 50-day moving average, technically still in an uptrend. Surprising and healthy. Use volatility like today to put your money to work.
Holds only the financials, including insurers and bigger banks. Avoid the US regionals.
Why are financials labouring today? True, the reports of JPM, Citi and Blackrock were fabulous, but we will have an inverted yield curve (and higher interest rates for longer) which will weigh on net interest income. Not fatal, but he wouldn't step into financials.
In his ETF long/short fund, financials are his second-biggest weighting. XLF includes BRK.B, Visa, JPM, a few regional banks, asset management companies, P&C companies. All are performing well right now. Only made a new high in the last year, start of a new, longer-term bull market.
KIE also looks really good, the insurers. KCE includes asset managers and investment banks, also good.
