Skelly sees the Mag 7 spending/capex cycle plateauing, which is a positive signal for the rest of the market as AI adoption broadens. He advocates deploying cash now, adding to value ideas (financials, healthcare) and international themes (Japan). He views policy shocks as 'pop-up ads' and expects midterms to cap upside near-term.
