'Stay BIG, Sell Rips': Hartnett Doubts Bull Market Without 3 Key Catalysts

Quick Summary:

In his regular “The Flow Show” report, titled “Stay BIG, sell rips” and shared Friday, the renowned contrarian strategist said he remains a buyer of dips in bonds, international stocks and gold — forming the acronym BIG — while selling into rallies in U.S.stocks and the dollar.“If no recession, equity lows are in, simple; but can’t jump back on bull unless Treasury yields falling below 4%, and earnings growth stays above 5%” Hartnett said.

Even after a powerful rebound after the early-April tariff-driven selloff, Bank of America’s chief investment strategist Michael Harnett says the case for a lasting bull market still depends on a rare trio of conditions that remains out of reach for now.

This broad-based weakness highlights what Harnett described as a “remarkable flip from ‘U.S.exceptionalism’ hubris to ‘U.S.repudiation.'”
