The air for black gold is getting thin

The topic of inflation fears is pushing investors out of their bond exposures. This can be observed for euro bonds as well as for U.S. bonds. From a risk assessment perspective, this seems to mean that the worst is over, especially as the crude oil price is also signaling a high-risk situation and relief could be on the way. For the equity side, we also measure high investment levels. Now the professionals have also bought in and are gearing up for a positive fourth quarter of 2021.

Expectations are dropping for the fifth time in a row to only 8 points.
