Software vs. Semis: Has the Rotation Gone Too Far?

  •  IGV has outperformed SOXX by ~70% since the June lows.
  •  Macro momentum has stalled. Software’s run has not.
  •  The pair trades 1.1σ rich to Qi fair value, with an 81% historical hit rate for mean reversion.

Brazil: Political Risk, Historic Opportunity

  •  Lula’s win triggered the Bovespa’s biggest one-day fall on record.
  •  Politics now dominates, with model confidence at 51%.
  •  But macro has improved and EWZ trades 2σ cheap, an historically rare entry level.

EURJPY: When Higher Yields Become a Warning

  •  EURJPY’s sensitivity to rate differentials is the most negative since 2011.
  •  Higher yields on fiscal risk are a warning, not a reward.
  • A -1.4σ FVG suggests valuation is cheap but the signal needs a catalyst; calm bond markets (specifically OAT-Bund spreads) are key.
