What is Mr. Market telling you right now?

If you’re an informed and intelligent investor–and you’re using the Hedgeye process–you’re presumably making smarter, more tactical decisions than simply buying SPY because some unaccountable pundit on CNBC is saying, “Buy Spoos!”

As Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough explains in the clip above from a recent edition of The Macro Show, being long (and short) specific sectors and factor exposures based upon our proprietary GIP model makes sense. It can help guide you through any confusion the market is throwing at you.

“XLU and VNQ are positions that will do better when the market believes it’s Quad 3 (growth slowing and inflation accelerating). Conversely, on market up days, irrespective of if the market is trading like Quad 2 (growth and inflation accelerating) or Quad 3, energy [XLE] has worked well in both,” McCullough explains.

“Use it to your advantage, so you can make good decisions. If it’s not signaling bullish trend, I don’t have to buy that.”
