Where the 'Fast Money' traders see the most promise — and problems — over President Trump's next 100 days
@Source: cnbc.com
No. 2: Tim Seymour
Most promise: Semiconductors and international investing. In the case of semis, they're the "ultimate cyclicals" and should be a buying opportunity built off of beaten-down valuations. He predicts supply and demand dynamics will "rage again" in the year's second half.
Seymour is also bullish on international investing. His name for it: MIGA, an acronym for "Make International Great Again."
He highlights Germany's DAX index outperforming the S&P 500 since late November. According to Seymour, it's a trade that should still work over at least the next 100 days because tariffs are both a wake-up call and tailwind.
He lists relative valuation attractiveness and "Magnificent Seven" exhaustion among other key upside drivers.
The Mag 7 index, which is comprised of Apple, Nvidia, Meta Platforms, Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft and Tesla, is down almost 16% over President Trump's first 100 days.
Most problems: Companies exposed to consumer credit and discretionary spending. Seymour expects U.S. consumers to tighten their belts due to high prices and a deteriorating jobs market.
No. 3: Dan Nathan
Most promise: "Cash will be king."
Nathan sees little working. He notes defensive groups including utilities, consumer staples and U.S. Treasurys, which historically benefit during economic distress, will eventually slump. According to Nathan, the headwinds produced by a tariff-induced recession will punish them.
Most problems: Planes, trains and automobiles. His base case scenario is a "protracted trade war" with China and possibly other key nations that will choke demand. Nathan advises consumers to "fasten their seatbelts for unexpected turbulence and bumps in the road.
No. 4: Guy Adami
Most promise: Retail. Most problems: Retail.
He thinks retail is in an odd spot. According to Adami, there's "no way to game this out, but they seemingly have the most at stake."
He told "Fast Money" on Tuesday that the unemployment rate will likely surprise to the upside.
"When you have an economy that's predicated on people having jobs and feeling good about things... that becomes problematic," Adami told viewers. "I think the market is still a little expensive here."
Disclosure: Tim Seymour runs the Amplify CWP International Enhanced Dividend Income ETF.
