Issue 1: Foundations: The Business Cycle Framework To Investing

11 October 2024

In this first edition of Trading Post, we introduce our business cycle framework of analysis. By reviewing historical patterns, Trading Post explores why business cycles are inevitable, how they function, and why understanding asset allocation throughout the cycle is essential for all investors, including bottom-up investors.

The report then delves into our proprietary business cycle indicators, using them to assess and provide investment recommendations across asset classes for the U.S., Europe, Japan, and eight Asian countries.
