Small caps are not the place to 'hide' right now

Strategas Securities managing director of investment strategy Ryan Grabinski joins Market Domination Overtime to assess small-cap investment prospects as President Trump's sweeping trade strategy prepares to take effect tonight at midnight on March 4. Grabinski challenges current market (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) expectations by pointing to historical precedent: During Trump's 2018 tariff implementation, small caps failed to deliver the outperformance many investors are now anticipating under this new trade regime. "It's hard for me to get on board with [small caps] now," he explains to Yahoo Finance. While acknowledging that small-caps are projected to outpace larger companies in earnings growth during the year's second half, he cautions that "they're not going to have the same boost they saw in 2017 to 2021 ... it's not exactly a great place to hide." Instead of betting on small caps, Grabinski recommends thinking about "industries that could actually benefit from the tariffs." He specifically highlights the insurance and utilities sectors as attractive investment opportunities.

Retail expert talks Trump tariffs: 'The sky is not falling'

Major retailers like Best Buy (BBY), Target (TGT), Macy's (M), and Costco Wholesale (COST) are preparing to release their latest earnings results throughout this trading week. While consumer spending fell by 0.2% in the month of January and the latest January inflation data came in line with expectations, what kind of picture is this painting for the retail sector? Read up on Yahoo Finance's coverage of the consumer boycott of major brands and companies in protest of DEI rollbacks. Storch Advisors CEO Gerald "Jerry" Storch sits down with the Morning Brief team to discuss how holiday shopping trends will materialize in this latest batch of retailer earnings and how the Trump administration's wave of tariffs could affect the sector as a whole. "I will say my own belief is that the sky is not falling," Storch, who previously served as the chief executive of both Toys R Us and Hudson's Bay, says on President Trump's tariff policies. "When we look at the tariffs that President Trump imposed in his first term, they didn't have kind of a draconian effect on the categories or affected on the or on the economy as a whole. And there were some fairly significant tariffs during that period. But what we saw is most of the costs were indeed sort of muted through negotiations with suppliers."

Crypto stocks rally as Trump touts new strategic crypto reserve

Crypto-related stocks, including Coinbase (COIN), Riot (RIOT), and Strategy (MSTR) — previously known as MicroStrategy — moved to the upside on Monday after President Donald Trump announced a strategic crypto reserve. The reserve will include digital assets such as bitcoin (BTC-USD), ethereum (ETH-USD), XRP (XRP-USD), Solana (SOL-USD), and Cardano (ADA-USD). Managing director of CoinDesk Indices Andy Baehr joins Morning Brief to discuss his outlook on the reserve. Baehr emphasizes that the digital assets beyond bitcoin mentioned for the reserve weren't "arbitrarily picked," though they were "a surprise" to investors. "It's a great step forward in the last of a series of very crypto-positive news in the United States," he says, though he cautions that all the details related to this reserve are "way in the future," describing this announcement as more of "an intent." While investors were primarily focused on bitcoin, Baehr believes the addition of other cryptocurrencies and indexing the crypto in the reserve was the right approach. He concludes, "It's very positive. A summit that goes beyond bitcoin shows that the United States, as the president said, wants to be the crypto capital of the world."

Trump, Zelensky meeting was a 'propaganda setup': Scaramucci

A heated exchange between US President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was a "propaganda setup," says SkyBridge founder Anthony Scaramucci, who briefly served as White House communications director in Trump's first administration.  "It felt like a setup to me. It felt like they brought him in to rough him up like that, I guess, to humiliate him and get him to resign because he's a very strong leader... It was a propaganda setup, frankly."
