How much is the seasonal headwind disturbing?

Sentiment toward equities is improving. But this does not lead to a clear increase in the number of bulls. Rather, the share of neutral investors is rising in the short term, indicating irritation. Indeed, much of the optimism rests on hopes for a typically good fourth quarter. But this is often preceded by a weak second half of September. The data also show that investors are increasingly enthusiastic about growth stocks and IPOs.

Bias and economy go their separate ways

Sentiment on the stock market has dipped again. But short-term concerns are not preventing investors from upgrading their medium-term outlook. The stock markets in Japan and the USA are particularly popular with professionals. In parallel, confidence in crude oil is also rising. This benefits the sector, whose sentiment is now the most bullish of all 19 STOXX 600 sectors.

Further results

  • Equities: Japan in the fast lane
  • Crude oil: It looks like oil prices will continue to rise

Central bank policy loses its fright

Investors assume that the central banks will gradually take their foot off the brake. The main reason is the weak economy. This is making investors more bullish about equities in the medium term. In the short term, the fear factor is still in play - albeit now in a reduced form. Bond investors should also benefit from a less restrictive interest rate policy. Therefore, the bias development as well as the contrary overconfidence signals should be taken seriously.

Further results

  • Equities: Fear in reduced form
  • Bonds: UK bias soaring - overconfidence in US bonds

Negative sentiment supports

Sentiment for equities remains poor. Even though sentiment has improved somewhat, short-term skepticism dominates. This is particularly pronounced for China equities. This gives rise to short-term opportunities for a recovery. Bonds are suffering from the high attractiveness of short maturities. Memories of 2006-2008 are awakening. In gold and EUR-USD, there are interesting divergences between strategic bias and investor behavior.

Further results

  • Bonds: Short maturities are irresistible
  • Gold: Positioning helps
  • sentix investor positioning in equities and bonds
