Thank you @practicalquant and @JJCarbonneau for a great discussion!

“Momentum will always reorient to what’s trending, away from weakness, irrespective of style boxes.

That adaptability of momentum is why it has been one of the best performing factor premiums over time.

But there’s a jump you have to make from just getting momentum exposure, to getting positive outcomes… decisions like when and how to rebalance and risk management make a huge difference.

In short, momentum is very simple in theory, but difficult in practice.

That is where we come in...”

Skills to pay the bills! $ATGE $LAUR $LINC $UTI all have momentum as more seem to be ditching the traditional 4 year college experience. All hit new 52 wk highs this week.

Gen Z is building skills to pay the bills!

They are skipping the four-year college path, choosing “skilled collar” careers - healthcare, trades, technical fields - drawn by faster, cheaper training and clearer payoffs.

Momentum is building. Recent earnings from $UTI, $LINC and $ATGE show it’s not just a blip—it’s structural.

Policy shifts + rising demand = tailwind for career schools.

Nuclear’s heating up.

Nuclear stocks have surged following President Trump’s Executive Orders aimed at accelerating nuclear development.

$CEG estimates demand for nuclear power will increase by 167% over the next 5 years.

This means growth potential for newer nuclear technology adoption - particularly small modular reactors to power data centers, as evidenced by $SMR hitting a 52-week high.

Momentum is building across the board. US and South Korean nuclear equipment suppliers $GEV, $CW, nuclear power producers $NRG, and Korean nuclear plant construction companies (Doosan Enerbility) are all hitting 52-week highs.

The tariff tantrum and economic uncertainty have rattled US equity markets this year. From a factor perspective, it is beta and volatility that have driven returns.

Other styles and factors, including momentum, have been less important in the vacillation between risk off/risk on.

For perspective, the Russell 3000 Index has climbed 20% since the low on April 8th, with the highest quintile beta stocks up over 41% for the period!

Infrastructure, eh?

Canada is committing over $129B in infrastructure spending over four years, with dedicated funds for housing, transit, energy, defense, and Indigenous partnerships.

Add in a ‘buy-Canada’ bias for materials like steel and timber, and you’ve got a sustained, multi-sector buildout underway.

Canadian stocks exhibiting signs of momentum include beneficiaries like AtkinsRéalis (national transit projects), WSP, Stantec $STN (engineering megaprojects and grid design) and Finning International (construction equipment). Find this interesting?

Global pharma is knocking on China's door.

Multinational pharmaceutical companies are increasingly tapping into Chinese biotechs for innovative R&D. Over 30% of large pharma in-licensed drugs are now from China. The latest - $PFE licensing an oncology asset from 3SBio for up to $6B in milestones.

Why? China is R&D-advantaged. Clinical trials are 30-50% cheaper and faster with new policies in April 2025, cutting approval timelines to <20 weeks.

$NVDA may be gaining momentum, but the bigger story is the broadening strength across the entire AI tech-industrial complex since early April.

Thanks @BrianSozzi for having me on @YahooFinance this morning. The market has indeed been a resilient basketcase this year – driven almost entirely by volatility and beta – but we’re seeing that dynamic shifting.

@AlecStapp @Sam__Enright A harmful idea is one thing. But many books in this thread are simply books that were written in a way to be enjoyable or digestible by non-experts. And there's nothing wrong with that. Especially if your goal is to sell books.
