Weekly Macro Themes - 29 April 2022

Here's a brief overview of the topics and charts covered in the latest edition of the Weekly Macro Themes report. I send this report out late Friday NZ time and aim to cover a good mix of macro/ideas/risk topics, across a global macro/multi-asset universe.

This week I covered the following topics/ideas:


1. Leading Indicators: We review a dozen of our leading indicators and present the consensus of the leading indicators for the economic outlook.


2. Global Equities Risk Review: Remain cautious on global equities given deteriorating technicals, weakening earnings revisions, downside risks to growth, and monetary stimulus removal.


3. Stock/Bond Ratio: Taking stock of the stock/bond ratio after the big moves in both stocks and bonds, and weighing up the balance on the outlook.

4. Industrial Metals: Industrial metals have had a strong run on the back of multiple tailwinds, but the near-term outlook is uncertain as a growth slowdown looms; China is set to decide the next steps.

5. Capital Market Assumptions [update]: Slight upgrade to nominal growth inputs following latest IMF data. Adds to the trend of rising expected returns (along with rising yields, falling valuations).
