For almost a decade, investors could count on central banks turning on their money taps in the event of an “whatever” crises or deflationary threats to stimulate the economy through more and more credit supply which ultimately led to higher asset prices.

Tackling dual headwinds, global equites and bonds are facing testing times. Persistent high inflation has forced central bankers to back down on their “transitory” rhetoric and pivot to a surprisingly aggressive path of future rate hikes.

A popular topic currently discussed is the stock market’s vulnerability to rising interest rates. This narrative revolves around the idea that with higher discount rates, future earning streams are worth less and thus, present equity valuations should contract.

Investment Outlook Q4/2021
The only “free lunch” in investing, as often argued, is diversification. The notion of significantly reducing risk without compromising returns has merit. Well-diversified portfolios typically produce comparable returns to any one asset class at a fraction of the risk.

Investment Outlook Q3/2021
As inflation is edging up, the lingering question is whether it will be transitory. The most probable answer is: who knows? Central bankers’ confidence in that price pressures are temporary is somewhat puzzling considering their track record of predicting spillover effects.

“Beating the market” is supposedly the yardstick that determines the merit of a money manager. If you cannot beat the market, then you might as well pack up and succumb to the effortless style of “passive” investing.

Clients are cutting back on US exposure
As the US and China continue to duke it out in the trade war, many Americans seem to be preparing for an economic downturn.

Ameliora Wealth Management CEO Rainer Nigg (pictured) told Citywire Switzerland that he has noted increased uncertainty among his US clients, particularly those in the ultra-high-net-worth range.

He said: ‘People are worried about what’s going on politically and economically. Ultra-highnet-worth clients want to diversify away from their US exposure. It’s about asset protection.’

In particular, he explained that they are concerned about the future of the dollar. ‘They are worried about the US dollar, so they are requesting portfolios without any US dollar risk. For them, international diversification is part of their wealth preservation strategy,’ he said.

However, Nigg himself remains fairly unconcerned with the state of the US economy, although believes that the trade war could be a drag. ‘Macro-economic  indicators don’t point towards US growth slowing down. But trade war tariffs will lead to higher prices, and consumer spending is likely to level off.’
