Asset Allocation Outlook July
Cash is King was the motto for investors in June. All the general asset classes noted losses. This doesn’t mean that there were no discernible differences though. Commodities posted a negative total return of nearly 11%, while global equities were down by over 8%. Real estate and high yield bonds had to digest similar losses, although emerging market debt suffered marginally less damage.
Please see Kempen’s Asset Allocation Outlook for July. The highlights this month are:
- Markets navigating between inflation and recession fears
- Financial conditions tightening fast
- Can businesses sustain earnings at a sound level?
- Investment policy: slight underweight in equities
