In post-pandemic world, investors need more commodities, alternatives and more
Tracie McMillion, head of global asset allocation strategy for the Wells Fargo Investment Institute, says that investors preparing for a post-pandemic stock market and economy will want to broaden their exposure to different equity asset classes and sectors, will need to be picky about fixed-income investments, but will also want to build up their holdings in commodities and add alternative asset classes and hedging strategies in order to ride out a world that is clearly rotating to new and different economic drivers. Also on the show, Phil Korenman, head of individual investors for T. Rowe Price, discusses the extra footnote the firm has put onto big one-year returns numbers telling investors just how unique the last 12 months have been, David Trainer of New Constructs puts another mem stock and retailer into the Danger Zone, and Eric Marshall of the Hodges Funds talks stocks in the Market Call.

RiverNorth's Galley on how the pandemic fueled the boom in SPACs
Patrick Galley, chief executive and chief investment officer at RiverNorth Capital Management and the RiverNorth Funds, does two interviews on today's show, one focused on closed-end funds -- which he believes represent a strong value in today's marketplace and which could be the way that investors changing their bond allocations look to goose returns -- and the other mostly on special-purpose acquisition companies, SPACs. He says that while SPACs have been the rage in the last year, the boom was pushed ahead by the pandemic, where the heads of private companies were looking for fast, efficient ways to go public in uncertain times, and he thinks SPAC activity will calm down -- but not go away -- as the pandemic recedes. Also on the show, Davis Martin of the SPY Trade of the Day talks technicals and how the market is mostly giving green lights right now, and Drew Horter of Tactical Fund Advisors discusses exchange-traded funds and tactical investing in the Market Call.

DoubleLine's Checcone: Value is poised to outgain growth, by a lot
Emidio Checcone, co-manager of the DoubleLine Equity Value Strategy, says that the recent value surge is just the start of what should be a long run where the value investment staples dramatically outperforms growth. Checcone notes that at the end of 2019, value was lagging growth by record margins, and that differential grew bigger by 35 percent in 2020 as the stock market took off. Now, Checcone sees value as bouncing back and notes that the recent outperformance by value -- which beat growth by 10 points in the first quarter and is up by about 7 points year to date -- seems 'pretty meager' compared to what he expects for months and years ahead. In the Market Call, Tucker Walsh of the Polen U.S. Small Company Growth Fund explains his firm's flywheel framework for finding stocks with outsized potential for gains. And Chuck starts the show by answering three questions from audience members.

Cresset's Ablin: Expect a lumpy recovery, mostly led by the U.S.
Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Cresset Capital Management, says investors should expect big economic growth numbers in the second and third quarters -- fueled by the release of pent-up demand plus inflation pressures -- but notes that nominal GDP growth of roughly 10 percent in those quarters will be in the United States and not around the world, leading to what he called a 'lumpy recovery,' mostly driven by the domestic action.

Also on the show, David Keller, chief market strategist at StockCharts.com, says that 3700 is a 'line in the sand' for the Standard and Poor's 500 Index, noting that if the market can remain above that level it should be able to avoid a significant downturn during the current rotation from a technology and large-cap  driven market to one led by small-caps and value stocks; Greg McBride of BankRate.com discusses the high percentage of investors who believe the stock market is rigged, and Mike Bailey of FBB Capital Partners talks stocks in the Market Call.
