DoubleLine Portfolio Manager Jeff Mayberry and Macro Asset Allocation Analyst Mark Kimbrough cover the June 3-7 market week for stocks (0:31), on the way warning about naïve extrapolations of stock-split returns; bonds (2:42); and commodities (4:15), with energy diverging from otherwise weaker commodity prices. Mark Kimbrough turns to busy week for macro news (5:18), including strong payrolls vs. a weaker-than-expected household employment survey. Jeff Mayberry (12:50) reads futures pricing for the federal funds rate and takes note of retirements driving the drop in the labor force participation rate. Then they discuss what to watch out for the week of June 10-14, including a “high-vol day” on Wednesday (15:23) with the release of the May CPI just hours ahead of the Federal Open Market Committee meeting and Fed Chairman Powell’s news conference.
