2 of 5 · Quarter-long call on the U.S. stock market during the COVID crash.

Outcome

Inaccurate

The S&P 500 rose nearly 20% in Q2 2020, its best quarter since 1998. The real economy did contract sharply that quarter, but the call was framed as a stock-market playbook, and markets were strongly positive.
