By Eric Parnell, CFA on October 21, 2025October 21, 2025 Markets continue to look “bubbly”, but a favorable economic and corporate earnings backdrop, rate cuts from the U.S. Federal Reserve, and an abundance of liquidity should continue to support asset prices in the near-term. The recent surge in gold and silver are signaling potential instability on the horizon. Keep a close eye on inflation readings heading into 2026. The stock market remains concentrated, and valuations are rich in these high-flying areas of the market. Maintaining a focus on broad portfolio diversification remains as important as ever in navigating potential downside risks going forward.
