Macro and market review*
Global equities recovered in October as investors reacted positively to corporate earnings reports. Cyclical stocks such as retail and autos outperformed along with energy stocks amid higher oil prices. Global government bonds fell slightly (yields rose), with still-high inflation prompting investors to price in more aggressive rate hike trajectories from major central banks. On the commodities front, most commodity prices rebounded from last month, with oil prices rising as caution over tight supply outweighed concerns over demand. Gold prices fell for a seventh consecutive month amid a stronger US dollar and rising interest rates.
Central banks remain in hawkish mode amid persistently high inflation and have signalled a willingness to raise rates in the face of slower economic growth. Major tightening may be limited as the effects of earlier rate hikes begin to filter into the wider economy.
Fiscal policy will have an important role to limit broader economic challenges including the cost of living crisis. This includes targeted fiscal policy support for households and businesses in Europe and increased infrastructure investment in China.
We expect a total of 425 bps of Federal Reserve (Fed) rate hikes in 2022, leaving policy restrictive by the end of the year. Further rate hikes are likely in early 2023 with policy makers adopting a ‘hike-and-see’ approach. This is likely to be the stance of the European Central Bank (ECB) too.
