With market concentration and top-heavy-ness a reality, how narrow is the path forward for investors to tread? There is an argument for harvesting beta, but there is also the presence of powerful stimulus in US markets from a loosening Fed and benevolent tax policy - both of which can propel equity markets further into the horizon. This propulsion is evident over-seas as well as in the US, allowing investors the choice to diversify via region.

Rob spent 27 years as a columnist for the Globe and Mail before retiring earlier this year.  He’s seen the markets through many ups and downs and has helped many Canadians along the way.

And the momentum looks good overseas too, with non-U.S. markets showing accelerating earnings estimates and strong performance.

And how might it shape the path ahead? Joining today's episode to unpack the latest macro movers impacting the markets is Fidelity Director of Global Macro, Jurrien Timmer.

So let’s rewind a bit, and look at how the fund has navigated those very different market environments. What has today's guest has learned along the way?

The tantrum in April was tough, but it has been a bountiful year, says today's guest. With an international trade policy that is proving to be less bad than expected for U.S. stocks, as well as the helpful tax and depreciation levers built into the One Big Beautiful Bill, the U.S. exceptionalism story rolls out news highs weekly.
