Fidelity Director of Global Macro Jurrien Timmer is back on the show today to discuss the current state of the markets. With its recent surge in value, Jurrien talks about Bitcoin today. He provides insights into the factors driving Bitcoin’s growth, including the potential impact of a crypto-friendly administration and the increasing adoption of Bitcoin-related investment products. He also speaks to concerns about the sustainability of Bitcoin’s valuation and the potential risks associated with investing in it. Jurrien’s conversation with host Pamela Ritchie also touches on the broadening of the market beyond the top-performing stocks, and the potential impact of rising interest rates and inflation on the market, as well as the implications for the U.S. dollar and its effect of emerging markets. And of course, no macro analysis this week would be complete without addressing the potential impact of policy changes under the new administration, including the possibility of tariffs and the potential effects on the market.
