Julia Hermann of New York Life Management tells Vonnie that the current macro and market backdrop remains favorable: economic growth is resilient, and although rates are rising, they have not yet climbed enough to threaten the growth outlook.

After years of watching for a lower limit on company investment, markets are increasingly concerned that spending—first among hyperscalers and now in chips—could become so high that it threatens free cash flow. The segment’s on-screen headlines note a worldwide memory-chip stock tumble and an ongoing chip selloff as major-bank earnings begin. (Source: Bloomberg)
