Macro Research &
Portfolio Solutions


Pragmatic, actionable, and accountable analysis and recommendations across global markets.  Our flagship research product, Contingent Macro Monthly, has a published track record since June, 2010.  
US Economics

Teaming with Dr. Steve Wood, formerly of Insight Economics and the University of California at Berkeley, our subscription-based economics research service offers focused and concise analysis of major economic releases and our proprietary Nowcasting data.  
Bespoke services related to these two services include developing real-time portfolio solutions for thematic macro investments and global economic outlooks.  

Our Philosophy

Investment research is often done in an academic manner by individuals who have never managed capital and risk in global markets. Asset management is often done by portfolio managers who build research departments as an after-thought.

Contingent Macro was founded by a former hedge fund portfolio manager who wanted to build research first and focus on the process of investing and managing risk from a portfolio manager perspective. Our partners have turned that vision into a process that complements and enhances our clients’ own investment processes and business decisions.
