But we saved everything 🙂.
Bob Elliott, co-founder and CIO at Unlimited, rejects the notion that macro strategies have been 'broken' over the past 3 years during the AI era.
He points out that, when matched to equity risk, these strategies have produced annualized returns exceeding 20 percent with a Sharpe ratio of 1.3.
Elliott has previously noted that U.S. manufacturing data is up 0.6 percent year over year, but remains below 2022 levels, according to recent figures. He has also argued that AI-focused spending by hyperscalers is providing only modest growth in real economy sectors like advertising, as outlined in his earlier analysis. These comments frame his perspective on macro strategy performance during the AI era.
