This view primarily started in November 2021, when I outlined my bearish view on tech/growth and $ARKK. The basic premise for this view was based on the expectation for yields, particularly 10-year Treasury yields, to rise under the Fed’s shift in monetary policy. In Q1 of this year, I noticed the Fed’s increasingly aggressive rhetoric and recognized that the broader market would fall under more pressure. In tandem with geopolitical risks, concerns of a recession, and ongoing inflationary pressures, the market is increasingly being overwhelmed by fear & risk. Conversely, for the majority of 2020 and the entirety of 2021, markets were greed-centric.
