Investment strategy through the ‘up crash’ and beyond

RBC’s Markets in Motion is the weekly podcast from Lori Calvasina, Head of US Equity Strategy at RBC Capital Markets, highlighting her latest views on the US equity market. This is a special edition of the podcast recorded live from the RBC Global Energy Power and Infrastructure Conference in New York on June 3rd, 2026. Lori teamed up with Callie Simpkins (Managing Director on RBCCM’s Cross Asset Hedge Fund sales team who moderated the discussion) and Amy Wu Silverman (Managing Director and Head of Derivatives Strategy) to discuss the outlook for the US equity market and other key macro issues including inflation.

Two big things you need to know:

• First, Lori and Amy review how the US equity market rally seems late innings in some respects, but is not making clear signs of a top and why there could still be room to run.
• Second, they emphasize inflation as a key risk factor, and how it factors into the equity market outlook and positioning.
