Cameron Dawson: "Always Remember, Price Leads Data"

Danny Moses welcomes back Cameron Dawson, Chief Investment Officer at NewEdge Wealth, for a deep dive into what's really holding this market together — and where the cracks are starting to show. Cameron explains why the S&P has held its 50-day moving average through war, higher oil, and a more hawkish Fed, and why that resilience comes down almost entirely to earnings. But she digs into a more troubling story underneath the Mag 7's earnings growth: deteriorating earnings quality, accounting maneuvers (reclassified leases, extended payables, one-time investment gains from stakes in companies like Anthropic and SpaceX), and a multiple that's compressed from 23x to 19x as a result. They cover the credit market's early warning signs in CCC-rated bonds, the "crowding out" effect as hyperscalers shift from self-funded to debt-and-equity-funded AI capex, why voters aren't punishing politicians for record deficits (yet), the stock market's growing role as the economy's real pressure point, and positioning in bonds, the dollar, and gold heading into next week's Fed and Bank of Japan decisions.--ABOUT THE SHOWFor decades, Danny has seen it all on Wall Street and has built his reputation on integrity, curiosity and skepticism that he will bring with him each week.
