We just published the latest "Market Cycle Guidebook", which is one of the main reports in our institutional investment research service.
The monthly Market Cycle Guidebook is designed to be a practical & tactical asset allocation guidebook for global multi-asset investors.
It focuses on illuminating the key drivers of risk and return across a global multi-asset universe, with the intention of generating actionable conclusions and meaningful insights for medium-term active asset allocation decisions.
Key features of the Market Cycle Guidebook: -Front page snapshot summary on the global economic cycle, monetary policy, and valuations -Market performance snapshot & commentary /highlights -Summary views across asset classes (short and medium term); basically an "AA cheat sheet"
-TAA/DAA guide visually mapping those views -Monthly updated Capital Market Assumptions -And of course, over 70 charts illuminating the key medium-term drivers of risk and return across a global multi-asset universe
-Australia/New Zealand appendix (since we're down this part of the world!)
>> Some of the key takeaways from the latest edition:
-The global growth outlook has deteriorated further
--multiple leading indicators point to recession
--data pulse showing clear signs of slowdown
-Yet inflation remains high (for now)
--central banks continue to hike with urgency
--inflation expectations elevated
-Anticipate central banks focus to remain on inflation vs growth
--this remains an unfriendly macro backdrop
--looking for inflation to peak, but not there yet
---stagflation for now, but deflation soon
-Remain underweight growth assets, overweight defensive assets
--especially like government bonds
---but also cash (guaranteed nominal return on/of capital)
-Remain underweight commodities, equities, property, credit
--few bright spots, but a lot of progress on valuation re-rating
--sentiment has reset lower in many respects, but not positioning
--expect global recession to dent earnings, demand, sentiment
The report is designed for active asset allocators, and professional investors who require top-down input in their investment process. If you are interested in learning more about this report and our services, I suggest you get set up for a trial today.
