Whilst the economy in the eurozone remains stagnant, there are at least signs of a slight economic recovery in Germany – albeit in tiny steps. Across the Atlantic, however, the picture is becoming gloomier: as an initial reac-tion to the recent mid-term elections, investors are anticipating an economic slowdown in the US. It is precisely this decline in economic expectations that points to a loss of the positive momentum seen recently. In Japan, too, the economy is losing momentum. Overall, this adds to the mounting evidence of a global slowdown in growth. The sentix Global Aggregate fell in November for the third month running, reflecting increasing signs of fatigue in the global economy.

Little fear, high underlying confidence

The sentiment situation on the equity markets can be reduced to a simple formula: relatively little fear and a great deal of underlying confidence. Although US equities in some cases recorded marked price losses, investors remain convinced over the medium term. At the very short horizon this is no all-clear, but with a view to the end of the year it is. Precious metals, too, continue to be supported by underlying confidence.

Afraid of (almost) nothing

The US midterm elections take place next week. In terms of sentiment, investors have so far shown only moderate concern about possible changes in the political environment and their impact on the financial markets. For technology stocks, by contrast, scepticism is considerably more pronounced. A look at portfolios also shows that investors are already acting more cautiously and have noticeably reduced their risks. Opportunities are currently emerging above all in Chinese equities and precious metals.

Im sentix Risikoradar messen wir für den chinesischen Aktienmarkt ein deutliches Chancenpotential, welches sich ganz wesentlich aus einer überdehnten Markttechnik ergibt. Ansonsten sind die Aktienmärkte eher unauffällig, in Summe aber leicht unterstützt. Für den Euro beginnt sich eine Chance zu entwickeln, die besonders bei EUR-USD bemerkenswert ist.
