Macro policy renders as portfolio outcome. We build allocations around the themes that actually move markets.
Strategas Asset Management is a macro-thematic RIA, a subsidiary of Baird managing the SAMT and SAGP ETFs. Every position traces back to a specific policy thesis — not a factor model.
Representative macro-thematic composite with the policy events that drove it. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Reshoring & Supply Chain Security
Tariff policy and CHIPS-style incentives are permanent, not cyclical — domestic manufacturing capacity is being rebuilt regardless of which party holds the White House.
Defense Industrial Base
NATO burden-shifting and Pacific deterrence commitments are multi-year appropriations, not headlines — the order book is visible three years out.
