The document is a summary of top US ideas for Q1, focusing on strategy and equity. The backdrop for risk assets has changed due to global interest rates reaching 5,000-year lows and the historical US Presidential election and Republican sweep of Congress in November 2016. OPEC reached a historic deal to reduce crude production by 1.2mn b/d with non-OPEC producers delivering an additional 600k b/d of cuts that same month, leading to risk assets responding positively. The current strategy stands in stark contrast to last year's focus on defensive growth ideas and is more heavily geared toward companies benefiting from increased fiscal stimulus, a pro-business agenda, and tax-policy reform. There are eight Buys and two Underperforms across six sectors listed, with updates planned at the beginning of each quarter unless coverage is dropped or recommendations change.

The document discusses regulatory issues and the burden they place on businesses, highlighting the need for regulatory relief to stimulate job creation and economic growth. The author mentions President Obama's Executive order "Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review" as a positive step but emphasizes the need for more action from the administration and individual agencies to provide real regulatory relief for job creators. One proposed solution is to strengthen the Unfunded Mandates Relief Act, which requires federal regulators to evaluate the cost of rules and consider alternatives with less cost. The document also mentions that while the current administration has said some of the right things regarding regulations, it has moved in the wrong direction, resulting in a sharp increase in economically significant rules.
