Ivan Illan, Chief Investment Officer at AWAIM, discusses the paradox in the U.S. equity market as of mid-2026, highlighting strong earnings growth in the S&P 500 but elevated valuations. He advocates for a selective approach to U.S. small and mid-cap (SMID) companies, noting significant dispersion within the asset class that presents opportunities for active managers. However, he warns of risks related to debt refinancing and emphasizes the potential for well-positioned firms to gain market share. The manufacturing sector shows signs of recovery, further supporting selective SMID investment.

US small-cap stocks are experiencing a significant resurgence in 2026, outperforming large-cap stocks by 8.5 percentage points after years of underperformance. The S&P SmallCap 600 Index has gained 6.8% this year, while the S&P 500 is down 0.49%. Key factors driving this shift include sector dynamics favoring small caps, improving earnings momentum, and capital rotation away from large technology stocks. Smaller companies are benefiting from a multi-year earnings cycle, productivity gains, and supportive policy measures, leading to a strong outlook for small-cap performance.

U.S. Stocks May Lack Direction Ahead Of U.S.-Iran Negotiations

On April 3rd, global macro trader Ariston stated on social platform X that the net selling scale of the global stock market in March 2026 reached a new high in 13 years, becoming the second-largest net sell since 2011. Although the market path during and after the conflict has been bumpy, the technical indicators show that there is still room for upward movement. The call skew in multiple markets is at a low level, and risk reversal trading remains attractive. If a 2 standard deviation volatility occurs in the next month, it will trigger approximately $47 billion in S&P futures buying and about $148 billion in global stock buying

- In March 2026, global equity markets experienced their largest net sell-off in 13 years, with figures ranking as the second-largest since records began in 2011.  
- Ariston noted that despite market volatility during and after the conflict, there remains some upward potential, with current low call skew presenting attractive risk reversal trades.  
- A significant market surge could trigger approximately $47 billion in S&P futures purchases and around $148 billion in global stock purchases over the next month if a two-standard deviation move occurs.

Global stock markets recorded a net selling scale in March that reached a 13-year high, marking the second largest in history
