"The U.S. is experiencing policy-induced fiscal tightening, whereas Europe is embarking on aggressive fiscal expansion, creating a highly compelling backdrop for global equity outperformance."
In their Q2 2025 letter, Advisory Research argues that tariffs are a form of tax hike and are inherently anti-growth rather than inflationary, contributing to classic fiscal tightening in the U.S. alongside spending cuts. While the U.S. economy faces a policy-driven slowdown, a recession is unlikely, and the Fed is expected to cut interest rates as the labor market cools. Conversely, international markets are experiencing a watershed fiscal pivot, led by Germany's abandonment of austerity and transition to deficit spending of 5-6% of GDP. These contrasting dynamics are expected to weigh on USD strength and fuel a multi-year period of outperformance for global equities.
