In our First Quarter 2026 market update, Jim Gore dives deep into THOR Wealth Management’s proprietary market indicators to provide a clear picture of the current investing environment.
By analyzing the THORdex, evaluating fixed income risk measures, and comparing the relative value of stocks versus bonds, we offer a comprehensive look at the underlying data driving the markets today. This objective, data-driven approach allows us to cut through the noise and explain exactly how we are positioning portfolios to manage risk and capture potential opportunities in the months ahead
We kick off the update by looking at the THORdex, our proprietary market indicator.
Currently the indicator has a reading of 70.79 which is telling us that risk is moderately elevated.
Next we highlight THOR’s fixed income risk indicators. Today they are showing opportunity in duration longer term but moderate signs of risk in credit sensitive bonds.
Long term we see better risk-adjusted opportunity in bonds vs stocks when looking at our stock vs bond indicator.
At THOR Wealth Management, utilizing proprietary indicators like the THORdex is a core part of our active investment management strategy. By continuously evaluating fixed income risk and relative asset value, we can make informed, objective decisions for our clients’ portfolios.
