“It’s often said that bond-market vtors are the smart money and tend to lead the stock market anticipatg enomic activy, ” Gayed explaed. ” Lastly, placency uld bee a ser issue, wh Gayed potg to several factors, cludg the wild recent tradg antics of Robhood trars. Michael Gayed says the S&P 500 uld return to s Febary 2020 highs.

Michael Gayed, a portfol manager at Toroso Asset Management, lls the current state of the market, "a very treachero environment" and one that we haven't really seen before, maly bee there's nowhere to hi. "All three of my funds have gotten h this year bee they're all predited on this ia that Treasuri act as the risk-off assets, " Gayed said. Year-to-date, Gayed's ATAC Rotatn Fund that swch between small-ps, large-ps, emergg markets, and Treasuri based on market ndns, is down over 15%.

Gayed was begng to work up a sweat until two weeks ago, when the downtrend on Treasuri reversed. Gayed believ that bond vtors may have seen the light and e to the ncln that their long-term fear is ls om flatn and more om flatn. However, flatnary shocks are herently flatnary, Gayed said.

All this is gog to be ultimately very, very negative for the enomy, " Gayed said. In the last two weeks, we've wnsed vtors move towards long-duratn Treasuri, Gayed noted. This means there uld be another big wave of drops equi, particular, the large-p averag such as the S&P 500 and the you're trekkg down a steep slope, you don't rece, you crash Gayed's fn of a crash is not about the percentage cle but rather how far back time you go.

For example, the stock market crash of 1987, also known as Black Monday, shaved ne months of performance off the Dow while the COVID crash of March 2020 took the stock market back by about 14-15 months, Gayed noted. In ncln, the risk is no longer a recsn but rather an abpt asked which asset class was most leveraged, Gayed rpond that 's unequivolly crypto.

That's not a predictn, " Gayed still believe that this is jt a n-of-the-l rrectn and a juncture to buy the dip. Gayed believ that this don't end until you break that psychology.

It's all risky "Bear markets make fools of both bulls and bears bee bear markets, 's volatile a very aggrsive way, both ways, " Gayed general, there's no such thg as a store of value or safety and right now, even sh is gettg h wh flatn, he noted. Gayed's only hope is that Treasuri ntue to act unter to equi, beg a good haven for a moment time.

The problem is that most people won't posn their money long-duratn Treasuri bee they don't unrstand the reasong behd , Gayed said. "I built my funds around that entire premise, which is proven history that Treasuri are historilly your bt and most nsistent risk-off safe haven and play, " Gayed said.

Michael Gayed is the portfol manager of the $287. In a live webar on Sunday, Gayed prented his award-wng whe paper "Leverage For The Long Run, " which he teach vtors to pntly e leverage to magnify returns.

Given his fdgs, Gayed veloped a strategy to e leverage when the market is above s movg average and leverage by movg to Treasury bills when the market is below s movg average.

But Michael Gayed, a portfol manager at Toroso Invtments, says leverage n be properly ed as long as vtors intify the right ndns for . Gayed manag the $287. This is what Gayed lls the "stctural lims" for stutns to lever up and take more risks to get more returns.
