Weekly Commentary
No Relief in Sight as FOMC Meets May 3-4

The NASDAQ closed below the March support level on Friday, losing 3.9% for the week. The index is now at its lowest level since November 2020 having given up 18 months of gains. The selling resulted from negative GDP growth in Q1 of 1.4% and imminent interest rate increases when the FOMC meets next week. There is little chance that rates will not be raised as the Fed has a dual mandate to maintain full employment and price stability. While the unemployment mandate is met, clearly price stability has gone out the window.

Redwood Trust (RWT)

Redwood Trust is an REIT and delivered a Q1 earnings surprise of 7.7% and gained 7.2% in normal hours on Friday and a further 3% in after hours trading. Forward guidance anticipates a dividend yield of over 9% which if realized would make it a profitable inflation hedge in the coming months.
