A parallel to 2018?
We are currently measuring an increase in the strategic bias for equities that is both seasonal and reminiscent of 2018. Let us remember: last year there was also a strong bias increase in September, but this was abruptly countered in October and turned out to be a false signal.

Classical US Pre-election Year
2019 is so far a relatively typical pre-election year in the US presidential cycle on the US stock exchange. If this remains the case, no major gains can be expected from US equities into November. However, the coming stabilisation phase of around 25 trading days also stands out in this analysis.

Insurances get into the interest focus
In the last three weeks, yields on long-term bonds in particular have come under massive pressure. Since 16 July 2019, the current interest rate for government bonds with a residual term of 30 years has fallen from +0.33% to cur-rently -0.14%. This development is also having an impact on shares in the insurance industry. However, investors have not yet focused on this.

“Waiting for death”
In the German language, the word "Rente" not only stands for the pension benefits of pensioners but is also anoth-er term for fixed-income securities (bonds). These were or are securities that offer the owner an annual, usually fixed rate of interest - like a pension. This is no longer the case at present. The deep slide of certain segments of the bond market into negative interest rates, for example German federal bonds, has massive consequences, which will be pointed out and discussed here.

Do you remember summer 2011? Back then, economic indicators and the stock market went their separate ways for many months. Within a few trading days, the whole thing turned into a summer crash. In 2019, too, such a gap opened up - more than ever.
