MARKET | |
Risk assets lost ground in August as the global economy showed signs of weakness, and investors feared interest rates would stay higher for longer. U.S., European, and Asian equities suffered a blow, meanwhile credit yields relative to U.S. Treasuries rose. |
OUTLOOK | |
The global economy may avoid a recession in 2023, but we believe that risks of an economic slowdown/recession have been pushed back rather than gone away. In our view, economic headwinds seen in Europe and China over the last few months are likely to persist. In the U.S., the effects of tighter monetary policies are likely to weigh more heavily on the economy going forward, especially as the positive impact from some of the factors that have supported growth in the recent past lessen. Inflation levels have, for the most part, declined, but they remain higher than central banks’ target. Against this backdrop, we think most major central banks are at or near peak in this current hiking cycle, but stickiness of inflation will probably require central banks to keep monetary rates in restrictive territory for a sustained period. | |
From a duration point of view, we are biased toward long-duration and curve-steepener positions in countries we view as advanced in their monetary policy/economic cycle, such as the U.S. and the U.K, and some emerging-markets. | |
From a credit perspective, we hold a modest overweight to credit sectors with a focus toward less cyclical and more widely traded parts of the universe such as investment-grade corporate, agency mortgage-backed securities, and high quality/AAA-rated securitized assets. | |
In currency space, we hold an overweight to the Japanese yen relative to a basket of other developed market currencies. We expect the yen to perform well if the Bank of Japan further tweaks its yield curve control parameters and/or risks of an economic slowdown grow. We also hold a modest long exposure to some emerging-markets’ currencies. |
