Swiss equities in high spirits
Swiss equities have been among the above-average stocks in recent weeks. And this, even though the majority of shares corrected here as well. Nevertheless, the defensive nature of the Swiss stock exchange proved to be conducive to stability. This leads to a very positive investor sentiment.

Don’t drink and drive!
Automobile stocks have been among the weak stocks on the European stock markets in recent months. Above all, the discussions about driving bans in Germany and the consequences of the diesel affair burdened the car manufac-turers, especially the German ones. This uncertainty has recently spread to the market as a whole. This has prompt-ed many investors to make their sector mix more defensive. But now the time may have come for a rethink.

sentix policy barometer: Brexit currently biggest political risk?
The decided withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union has become the greatest political risk from the point of view of the investors surveyed by sentix in recent months. Increasingly, there are growing signs that there will be no comprehensive new regulation of contractual relations in good time. Even the US president and his trade rhetoric is fading into the background.

Is the silver shine coming back?
The price of silver has suffered considerably in recent weeks. The troy ounce fell from almost 17 US dollars to just over 14 US dollars. And if you only look at the market price, there is still no end in sight to the downward movement. However, a first glimmer of hope is to be announced from the sentiment.

sentix policy barometer: The Brexit is increasingly becoming a burden
Since the beginning of the year, investors have perceived political issues as clearly weighing on the stock markets. So far, geopolitical issues and US President Trump have been the main influences. Despite the Turkish crisis, the sentix policy barometer has not deteriorated in this respect. But another topic is moving ever stronger - and negative! - into focus.

End of the holiday period
With the end of the holiday season in Central Europe, investors are also rethinking their minds. Medium-term ex-pectations for shares in the travel and leisure sector are falling significantly. This creates a sales readiness that speaks for an upcoming relative weakness of the sector.

Party without atmosphere
We observe a very rare phenomenon at sentix: the US stock markets are going up, the Nasdaq is climbing from one all-time high to the next - only the enthusiasm of investors is missing. The reasons are "fundamental".

Automobiles and banks - two unloved sectors
In recent weeks, two sectors in particular have made negative headlines: the automobiles industry and the banking sector. In both cases, these are coming from home-grown problems of individual companies as well as from a specific political component. Both together has strongly depressed investor sentiment in the sectors, resulting in an interesting constellation for contrary investors.

Sentiment comeback of the US dollar
The US dollar has made a respectable comeback in the last four weeks. Against the euro, the greenback appreciated by around 6 cents and also strengthened against the Japanese yen. This has significantly changed the mood, as measured by the sentix sentiment. In the short term, investors are not as bullish for the dollar as they have been since the end of 2016.

Oil and oil stocks are running hot
The uncertainties in the Gulf region, which continue to be fueled by the termination of the Iran nuclear agreement by the USA, and the sharp rise in prices are leaving their mark on investors' sentiment. Investor sentiment on oil has reached its highest level since the end of 2016, and oil shares are also in high demand. But here, too, we are now measuring euphoric trends in the sector sentiment. A contrary chance is looming!
