A CLOSER LOOK AT OUR TACTICAL POSITIONING TARGETS
Some Meeder Portfolio strategies utilize our Defensive Equity Strategy to determine what portion of the portfolio’s equity sleeve will be invested in the equity markets. The dynamic statistical model analyzes and ranks over 70 different factors from our short, intermediate, and long term models to estimate the potential reward and marketplace risk of the equity markets. When the model indicates that the risks of the stock market may be greater than its potential rewards, the portfolios can scale back their equity exposure.

QUICK TAKE
The long-term model is negative as valuations continue to become more stretched, particularly relative to interest rates and inflation. Poor market breadth is also a concern across almost all major indices as the equal weighted version of the S&P 500, S&P 400, Russell 2000, developed international ex-US, and emerging markets are underperforming their market cap weighted version.
Intermediate-term model is neutral as investor surveys, newsletters, and options activity are all showing above average bullishness, which is a negative from a contrarian perspective. However, the market is pricing in a potential for two rate cuts by the end of 2024.
Market RISK continues to remain low as expected equity market volatility is below average and expected interest rate volatility is its historical average.
