    This Isn’t a Pullback - It’s a Quant Unwind and a Full-Blown Rotation

    A surge in the ISM Manufacturing Index above 50 has triggered a genuine regime change, forcing capital out of crowded tech momentum trades and into the real economy. This is not a normal rotation but a quant unwind, where factor-driven selling in growth is mechanically funding value and cyclical exposure. AI-driven CapEx is acting like QE for the physical economy, channeling massive investment into energy, materials, industrials, housing, and transport. I’ve been positioned in cyclical value since 2025 and am now looking to add on weakness, as fundamentals support a multi-year rotation rather than a short-term trade.
