Macro expectations bolster bias for US versus EZ Equities

The latest sentix underlines the continued interplay between macro and markets. On the equity front, a feature of recent surveys has been investors’ more positive medium-term strategic bias on US equities versus the Eurozone (EZ). This chimes with some relative improvement in economic expectations for the US relative to the Eurozone. US values in April’s sentix Economic Index improved considerably again, with current situation and expectation values gaining +5 index points respectively. The overall US sentix Economic Index rose to 14.5 as compared to 5.7 for the Eurozone. Macro expectations appear to be bolstering investors’ strategic bias for US equities over Eurozone. On the Eurozone bond front, however, the latest sentix survey also indicates that economic developments have become a less bullish theme for bonds. See Page 2 for charts.
