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. China Macro: Checking in on China across property, inflation, and the economic pulse, and what it means for policy, the currency, and most importantly - the equities!
2. EM ex-Asia: Still believe it makes sense to look at emerging markets in two distinct subgroups, but as the charts show, it is a subgroup within this subgroup that looks most interesting (i.e. LatAm).
3. Europe: Increasingly complex outlook as technicals change, valuations improve, but macro/credit outlook worsens. Also wary of price action in EURUSD.
4. UK Equities: Remain bullish UK equities as the strong (relative) value and positioning setup is complemented by macro-favorable sector skews. Also lean bullish GBPUSD (value/sentiment/positioning).
5. Global Banks: Changing the view here after a long-standing and profitable long-view. Be sure to check out the full range of charts we talked about on this one (across technicals, macro, and valuations).
