Today’s topic is Value Over Growth. Hedge funds reported their first-quarter portfolio changes to the SEC and we’re starting to see those reports. Hedge Funds are a good indication of where institutional money is going and what their thinking is. These reports show that hedge fund managers are starting to move to value over growth. There are outliers but hedge fund managers like Steve Cohen at Point72 and Nelson Peltz from Trian Management were exiting or cutting their growth stocks and adding to their positions in value stocks like Google (Alphabet NASDAQ: GOOGL) and GE (NYSE: GE). Paul Singer at Elliott Investment Management exited both of his high-yield ETFs and reduced his exposure to Valaris (NYSE: VAL) an ocean drilling company. I saw other managers starting to reduce their exposure to energy and drilling companies as well. Going into the second quarter, after taking profits from first-quarter rallies, the pattern looks like institutions will be looking more closely at stocks that haven’t had big run-ups and could be considered to be value stocks (Alphabet?) vs putting new money into growth stocks.

I'd be willing to be dollars to donuts that U.S. stocks won't repeat their first half performance--up 17.4% on the Standard & Poor's 500--in the second half of the year. It's hard for me to find a catalyst that isn't already priced into the market--from interest...
