When we say all the macro air-cover in one place—we mean in one place and for one price! RenMac Access has three senior, top ranked, analysts providing you with all necessary macro analysis you need to make informed decisions.
Jeff deGraaf
Head of Technical Research
As a member of Institutional Investor’s Hall of Fame, Jeff has helped legitimize technical analysis by employing a disciplined process reliant on data, history, and statistics, while discounting the narrative-based approach that remains so popular on Wall Street. His dedication to the business, unquenchable passion for markets and history creates a foundation that offers the flexibility to profit and protect.
Neil Dutta
Head of Economic Research
Neil Dutta leads RenMac’s economic research efforts, analyzing global trends and cross market investment themes. Neil joined RenMac after spending seven years at Bank of America-Merrill Lynch, where he was a senior economist covering US and Canada. Neil is considered a market economist, looking at the economic data and trying to highlight the risks to the consensus as he sees them.
Steve Pavlick
Research
As the Head of Policy at Renaissance Macro, Steve helps buy-side clients identify opportunities and price political, legislative, and regulatory risks in today’s dynamic public policy environment.
Our Philosophy
Deep, Original & Vetted Research
The RenMac partners left large bulge-brackets to build a world class database of research dating back to the 1920s. We continue to expand our reach and intellectual horse-power into more markets and disciplines as we strive to provide the deepest, most original, and thoroughly vetted research available.
“Renaissance Macro provides clients with data driven insight matched with decades of experience in triangulating the macro-pillars of money management: economic, policy, and strategy. Understanding where we are in the market cycle, what history tells us about the future, and unique issues of today stretch beyond the most recent headline, elections, and the next quarterly estimate. You need more from what you can get for free and you deserve more than a tweet or blog. We built RenMac Access for those that need that macro air-cover but don’t currently have access to our institutional products. This is an excellent starting point in better understanding our process.“
Jeffrey DeGraaf, CEO
Our Outlook
We Think About Tomorrow
We do not provide stock picks and then tell you when we were right or how much money you would have made if you had known us two years ago.
Instead, we share insights gleaned from our past experiences, discuss our outlook for the future, and provide a wealth of data and intellectual analysis throughout the entire process.
RenMac mailbag: We're adding a question or two to our popular and growing "Off-Script" podcast. Reminder, we're going for the meat of the curve here, not trying to flex, so keep it broad interest vs in the weeds....that's what our paid research provides. $SPX etc fair game.
Nominal GDP ran 4.5% SAAR in Q4, right on top of the Federal Funds Rate. Yesterday, Powell torpedoed any move in March while adopting a wait and see approach. Thus, the odds of passive tightening are rising.
Now Powell just elevated the 12-month rate of inflation noting the strong growth in inflation in Q1 2024. If you get even a 0.3% on core PCE in January, you'll see meaningful declines in year-over-year inflation. Press conference has a more dovish bent that statement.
