It's all about confidence: assessing risks worth taking

  •  Inflation has been stickier than expected, but it is expected to decelerate further towards central bank targets in 2025, allowing central banks to initiate and continue the new cycle of cuts at different speeds.
  •  Equities are still attractive unless we enter a recession, which is not our base case. However, there are concerns about excessive valuations in US mega-caps. Potential opportunities abound in US quality, value and international equity. 
  •  After trading in a narrow range, fixed income yields are set for a new course, with rate cuts approaching and curves expected to structurally steepen. With yields already at historically appealing levels, a window of opportunity could be opening.
