In the parlour of the financial theater, the president of Yardeni Research smiles with the self-satisfied radiance of a man who has discovered a neat little loophole in the universe and is not afraid to flaunt it to the chorus line of the stock tickers.
The latest CNBC interview finds Ed Yardeni assuring us that the world’s geopolitical melodrama is not a derailleur but a purchase godsend, a garnish for the market’s already prepared dinner.
“Still the March 30th low I think was it for this pullback. It didn’t even it turned out to be a correction for the Nasdaq but not for the S&P 500. But you know the earnings season is up ahead here. And I think it’s going to confirm that the earnings story is remarkably resilient.”
He adds that markets, cunningly, have a track record of shrugging off geopolitics with the calm of a butler who has misplaced only a teacake, turning periods of nervous tension into opportunities for those with the stomach to watch the show from the balcony.
“Well, I think we have some experience, even recent experience with these these kind of events. Geopolitical crises tend to be buying opportunities. And we, we saw that last year when we had the the whole tariff issue, we had a bear market in 2022. No, no recession, but it only lasted nine months and turned out to be a great buying opportunity.”
The word-honeyed economist notes that the U.S. economy and its financial markets show fortitude despite languid data and Middle Eastern flare-ups that threaten ports and energy supplies like a mischievous cat at the door.
He believes the market’s barely perturbed reaction to such news is a sly wink from investors, a sign that geopolitical tremors are unlikely to carve lasting economic injuries into the country’s delicate ledger.
