What is your fund's Macro outlook?

With the markets starting to settle down after the Trump election, with the promise of increased infrastructure and the probability of the US renegotiating of many trade deals. I am interested to hear what your fund's Macro outlook is?

Cautious. One has just a good a shot of calling the macro outlook as they did calling the election. The bear case is no different than it was a month ago. The bull case is half the country just got bullish on the economy and neither have would've been if Hillary won.

Overwhelming grasp of the obvious.
 

Weak economies... Disengaged consumers.. Fed propping up markets... Economic growth average of the last xx years may have been an event and not the norm.. Take your pick. Not saying I give them all merit.

Overwhelming grasp of the obvious.
