BlackRock Global fixed income CIO Rick Rieder joins Market Domination hosts Julie Hyman and Josh Lipton to discuss his strategy around the election and its effects on the market. “In the short term, markets are going to gyrate. There's no question about that,” Rieder says, noting that depending on the post-election makeup of Congress, “policy probably won't radically change” if either Trump or Harris is in the White House. “At the end of the day, if you're invested in the right businesses, the right companies, the right rate structure,” it doesn’t matter who wins the election," he explains. “Markets and the economy are incredibly resilient to policy, unbelievably resilient to policy. Good policy [or] bad policy.” As a combination of uncertainties fueled recent volatility spikes, Rieder highlights the opportunity that pullbacks can create for investors. “The volatility in the equity market is great to buy volatility. The equity market is crazy cheap. So, we've added a lot of convexity to the portfolio through equities." He adds, "In stocks, I like these big, durable companies with big cash flow models that, almost regardless of policy, will keep doing their things." Rieder is set to speak at Yahoo Finance's Invest 2024 event on Tuesday, November 12. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination here.

Stock market today: S&P 500 posts back-to-back losses for first time since September as rally stalls Stocks are eyeing a second day of losses as investors rethink the outlook for interest rate cuts over the next year. Fed should pause, not be 'bullied' into another cut: Portfolio mgr. With the Federal Reserve's next meeting approaching, investors are closely watching for signals about monetary policy direction. Bryant VanCronkhite, Allspring Global Investments senior portfolio manager joins to share his insights. VanCronkhite emphasizes that despite the ongoing third-quarter earnings season, the Federal Reserve's trajectory for interest rates remains "in control" of market direction. He highlights two key factors: In the short term, investors are focused on labor market dynamics and their impact on inflation expectations. In the long term, he raises the critical question, "What happens if the Fed loses credibility?" "My view is they probably want to pause here, digest some more data, and not be bullied into an additional 50 basis point cut coming up in the next month or two," VanCronkhite explains. He further outlines two main challenges affecting the Fed and inflation: supply-side issues that "the Fed really can't control," such as labor strikes and geopolitical tensions, and demand-side factors where "the labor situation is still not fully in balance," coupled with rising fiscal spending.
