"Regency Wealth sees market volatility from tariff announcements as disconnected from resilient economic fundamentals."

Executive Summary

Regency Wealth maintains a moderately optimistic outlook despite significant market volatility triggered by Trump's reciprocal tariff announcements, which caused the S&P 500 to drop over 12% in four trading days. The managers emphasize the importance of distinguishing between soft survey data and hard economic indicators, noting that while consumer sentiment plummeted to April 2022 levels, actual PCE inflation printed at 2.1% versus survey expectations above 7%. S&P 500 companies continued growing revenues at 5% and earnings at 13% year-over-year, with several issuing upside guidance for the second quarter. International markets gained investor interest with MSCI EAFE returning 12.07% for the quarter. The Fed is expected to cut rates once in 2025, down from the previous base case of 2-3 cuts, as policymakers assess trade policy implications. Credit card delinquencies declined at major banks, indicating stronger consumer financial health. The managers stress prudent diversification and risk management while maintaining confidence in economic resilience despite headline uncertainty.
