Sentiment upswing on Utilities and Energy

The latest sentix survey suggests that investors have become markedly less downbeat on several sectors. In the case of Utilities, readings have rebounded from historic lows, to their highest level of 2015, albeit the survey suggests pessimism remains notable. At the same time, sentiment has also improved on Basic Resources and Energy versus the market, consistent with the notable improvement seen in sentiment towards Crude Oil (see Charts 2-4). A near-term revival in equity sentiment has been accompanied by a less downbeat view on some of the least loved European sectors.

Schizophrenie oder Gleichgültigkeit

Auch in dieser Woche müssen wir uns die Frage stellen, ob die Anlageprofis Gefangene ihrer Grundüber-zeugung sind (Stichwort „alternativlose Aktien“).

Asia ex Japan, Eastern Europe and Latin America benefit as economic expectations brighten up.

Macro uncertainty boosting bond sentiment

The latest sentix Economic Indices, released today, revealed a further decline in both eurozone (EZ) economic expectations and current situation readings, while the EZ overall headline reading fell from 13.6 to 11.7 (its lowest level since January). This more downbeat assessment of the eurozone macro outlook is also colouring investors’ views of bonds. Monthly survey readings based on views on the macro outlook as a bond ‘theme’ indicate that economics is seen as having become more
‘bond bullish’ on a six month view (Chart 3, page 2). This is consistent with the gradual improvement in sentiment towards bunds that has been seen in recent months. The sentix survey continues to indicate that macro matters for bonds.
