Blindspots And Trade Shocks

U.S. equity markets tumbled in a sudden jolt of volatility as investors - already flying blind on key data - reacted to a surprise, massive tariff announcement on Chinese imports. The White House announced a 100% added tariff on all Chinese imports beginning next month - up from 30% currently - as retaliation to new export controls on rare minerals. The CBOE Volatility Index surged to the highest levels since mid-May in a sudden onset of angst following several months of relatively tranquil market conditions.

Host Hotels: Undervalued As Consumer Bifurcation Benefits High-End Lodging

Host Hotels is likely undervalued, offering inflation protection and a 5% yield, with a focus on upper-tier lodging assets. HST's stable cash flows, lower leverage, and non-core asset sales position it well amid economic bifurcation that supports high-end travel demand. Despite rising costs, HST's valuation discount to peers like Hilton and Marriott is unjustified, with a price target of $25.30 based on a 7% cap rate and its NOI.

Echoes Of Earlier Easing

U.S. equity markets snapped a four-week winning streak, while benchmark interest rates rose as investors parsed a surprisingly strong slate of economic data, including a two-year high for GDP growth. The Citi Economic Surprise Index has completed a volatile round-trip this month, plunging in early September ahead of the Fed rate decision before rebounding sharply in recent weeks. The recent trend has echoed patterns during the prior Fed easing in late 2024, when mid-year weakness prompted a policy pivot that was subsequently cut short by a late-year economic rebound.
