VAR Investment Committee – September 2019
Short read:
Market Overview:
- Bonds and Equities have done quite well year to date despite trade war escalations; slowdown in global growth; Brexit uncertainty and endless tweets from President Trump
- We expect both bond and equity markets to generate lower returns with higher volatility in the next few quarters
Positioning
- Overall, we are being defensive and aiming to take profit to lock in gains from the first part of the year where relevant
- Since we are in latter innings of an economic bull cycle, our equity positioning is defensive with focus on higher quality, secular growth and event names
- In the bond space, we continue to be underweight high yield and have increased our allocation to floating rate bonds
Please let us know if you have any questions.
