Our latest Quarterly Investment Reports highlight a strong final quarter.
As economies are generally holding up better than expected, inflation also continued to fall, providing welcome relief to both bond and equity markets. While the economic outlook remains relatively uncertain, the moderation in inflation means central banks may be able to reduce interest rates in the year ahead.
The improvement in interest rate expectations created a positive environment for most asset classes in Q4, with falling bond yields leading to meaningful capital appreciation. It was also a positive quarter for the equity market, particularly those with increased interest rate sensitivity.
We enter 2024 on a more positive footing, but continue to underline the importance of diversification as a way to navigate any potential economic challenges.
Join Patrick Ingram, Peter Dalgliesh and Harry Garrett on 24th January at 11am for the story behind the figures for the last quarter.
