Your Quarterly Investment Pulse – Without the Noise

The Q3 2025 Dunham Quarterly Pulse is here - highlighting the trends, shifts, and strategy updates shaping the next phase of the markets.

Last quarter brought calm headlines but deeper contradictions beneath the surface.

  • Tariff uncertainty faded - yet trade costs remain high.

  • Credit flows improved - even as global growth slowed.

  • And equity markets climbed - though valuations stretched to historic extremes.

Through it all, the Dunham Investment Committee stayed focused on balance, discipline, and select opportunities.

Inside, you’ll find:

  • Why global policy uncertainty declined - but risks still linger beneath the surface.

  • How a wave of credit creation and 168 central bank rate cuts are shaping global markets.

  • What record household wealth - and uneven spending patterns - mean for the economy.

  • Why artificial intelligence - not the consumer - is now driving U.S. growth for the first time in decades

  • Why gold reserves now exceed Treasuries for the first time since 1996 - and what that signals.

  • How Dunham portfolios adapted - trimming strength, adding value, and staying true to our “Buy Fear, Sell Greed” discipline.
