📊 Active Investors Gaining Edge?

Good Morning Investors,

The rally comes with rising dispersion and volatility, a sign that active selection is beginning to matter more than passive exposure. Market participants continue to flag liquidity and leverage as key watch points following recent commentary on financial conditions and warnings about elevated margin use.

Thematic opportunities are evolving. In biotech, momentum is rotating beyond weight loss treatments toward under the radar categories such as menopause therapies, highlighting renewed investor appetite for differentiated health innovation plays. Miners and commodity linked names benefited from renewed interest amid trade-tension headlines and safe haven flows.

Sector specific and dispersion driven rather than broad based. Active stock picking, liquidity awareness, and sensitivity to macro signals remain essential as trade developments and Fed communications continue to steer near-term direction.
