Centerline Market Update 2025Q4

Navigating the AI Supercycle : Strong Tailwinds, Thinner Air

The third quarter reinforced a key message – Trump policy and structural trends continue to drive markets, but the air is getting thinner. AI, semiconductors, and power infrastructure remain dominant forces, supported by both corporate capex and government policy. At the same time, dispersion is accelerating – especially within technology – making active management critical.

 

Key Themes We Explore

  • Don’t Fight Trump: Policy tailwinds remain visible as the administration pushes for lower rates, energy expansion, and AI leadership.
  • AI Supercycle Early Innings: Massive infrastructure buildout and rising adoption signal significant runway ahead, but winners are increasingly tied to capex intensity.
  • Capex-Driven Dispersion: NVDA, MSFT, GOOGL, and META lead on AI investment; AAPL and AMZN lag, underscoring the market’s selective reward for spend.
  • Power Shortfall: U.S. faces structural energy constraints as AI demand accelerates – creating opportunities in power and industrials.
  • Gold’s Surge: A 48% rally YTD reflects hedging against fiscal and geopolitical risk, even as the dollar strengthens.
  • Credit Resilience: Despite macro volatility, spreads remain tight; private credit manager selection is critical as dispersion increases and “credit stories” become more prevalent.

Objective Advice

We provide advice that is 100% objective, transparent and free from outside influence. As fiduciaries for our clients, we are legally bound to place their interests above everything else we do.

Independent Custody
Of Client Assets

We have selected Charles Schwab to hold all client assets on our behalf. This selection was made on a completely objective basis—we have no affiliation with or commitment to Charles Schwab. As of now, we believe it is the best firm for the job; should that change, we will find a different
custodian to serve our clients.

Greatly Expanded
Products And Services

We maintain a strategic partnership with Dynasty Financial Partners, a firm that gives us unfettered access to some of the industry’s leading products and services. Instead of being captive to one company, our clients benefit as we seek the absolute best solutions for their comprehensive planning needs including opportunities in the world’s top capital markets, advantageous lending solutions, investment banking relationships, asset management strategies, liability risk mitigation, estate planning, and much more.

As independent advisors and fiduciaries, we are uniquely equipped to realize plan goals because our advice is based on the strategies and investment choices that are optimal for each client. As a result, we can operate on a simple fee structure that reflects a percent of total assets managed. At Centerline, we believe that it’s only when our clients succeed that we do.
