Equity market: Neutral weighting ahead of US election

For our short-term allocation, implemented at the beginning of November just before the US presidential election, we are maintaining a neutral weighting of equities compared to bonds. The risk of a short-term negative surprise is too great: a Trump victory could potentially lead to tariffs, which would be particularly burdensome for European and especially Chinese equity markets.

The overall picture remains positive for euqity markets: The prospect of a "soft landing" for the economy is intact, and the significantly decreased inflation rates provide ample room for interest rate cuts. This has contributed to an excellent annual performance so far.

From the inflation side, we see this positive picture well secured. However, we assess the risk on the economic side to be greater, especially as the economic outlook in Europe has deteriorated in recent months and interest rate cuts here are likely to show positive effects only in the course of next year. Additionally, the previously little-noticed geopolitical conflicts could gain importance for the global economy at any time and then also influence financial markets in the short-term.

What influence crises have on the equity markets?

Are equity investments still worthwhile? Crises have always had a direct influence on the equity markets. The video shows the crises over the past 50 years (using the global equity index MSCI World for example). As you can see, the equity market also rise again after crises. The quintessence: As an investor, you need staying power (i.e. a long-term investment horizon) and the necessary willingness to take risks when investing in equities.
