V2 Model February 5, 2022

Recap

The major equity markets finished the week higher even as inflation, higher interest rates, and tighter Federal Reserve (Fed) policy remained on investors’ minds. Investors scooped up beaten-down names at the end of the day Friday to lift the averages. While S&P 500 Index companies have mostly delivered better-than-expected results during earnings season, relatively high equity valuations for high-growth companies have added increased volatility to the markets.

V2 was down slightly this week and we moved from a partial short position to cash.
