Foresight October 2020: key macro themes and market outlook

In recent months, investors have gone from worrying about the impact of interest-rate normalization to seriously thinking about the potential implications of negative interest rates. As we move into the next phase of the COVID-19 outbreak, the search for yield is becoming increasingly urgent.

Good yield hunting: the return

The more things change, the more they stay the same—a saying that seems particularly apt as we stand at the precipice of another COVID-19 outbreak. Once again, we find ourselves thinking about lockdowns, social distancing measures, and vaccines.

That said, it’s equally important to remember that progress has been made in the past few months, both on the economic front—thanks to prompt policy response from central banks and national governments—and from a medical research perspective. Although the recovery has slowed and uncertainty is likely to continue to feature prominently in the short term, we believe the worst of the COVID-19 economic shock and the ensuing recession risk is behind us.

From an investment perspective, however, it does mean that a theme that we’re all familiar with is back in play: the search for yield. As interest rates remain low, investors and asset allocators are increasingly pushed toward assets that sit further out on the risk spectrum than were historically required, in exchange for returns.

Volatility across global markets is certainly present; however, we believe investors should continue to push into equities from a return-seeking perspective. Similarly, it’s also important to note that we remain in the recovery phase of the broader economic cycle.  We do believe we’ll see higher equity price levels in the coming year, although the journey isn’t likely to resemble a linear move in price levels. Uncertainty may abound, but wearing our asset allocator’s hat, we’re confident that a sharp focus on macro themes and detailed modeling can point the way to opportunities and highlight emerging risks—just like they used to. 

Chart of five-year asset class forecasts, expected returns in U.S. dollar terms, as of September 30, 2020. The asset allocation team’s expected five-year total return for various asset classes are as follows: 3.9% for U.S. large cap; 7.9% for U.S. mid-cap, 6.7% for U.S. small cap; 7.9% for Canadian large cap; 8.6% for large cap equities in Europe, Africa and the Far East (also known as EAFE); 8.7% for EAFE small cap; 5.5% for global large cape; 7.8% for European equities; 7.3% for Japan equities; 8% for emerging-market equities; 7.8% for emerging Asia equities; 6.6% for U.S. real estate investment trusts, 6% for global infrastructure; 8.4% for global infrastructure; 8.6% for global natural resources; 0.6% for U.S. investment-grade bonds, 3.9% for U.S. high-yield bonds; 3.4% for U.S. leveraged loans; 0.2% for U.S. Treasury inflation-protected security; 5.1% for emerging-market debt; and 0.5% for global government bonds.

Key macro views

Short-term macroeconomic themes

  • The worst of the COVID-19 shock and recession is likely behind us, although there are continuing risks to the recovery, and we continue to operate in an environment defined by extraordinary uncertainty. While the first phase of the global economic recovery has been encouraging, we expect momentum to slow over the coming 6 to 12 months as a second wave of the outbreak flares, social distancing measures limit a full resumption of activity in the global services sector, and rising geopolitical risks in many pockets of the world look set to heighten the level of uncertainty for businesses and households alike.
  • The recovery remains uneven and is likely to resemble the letter K in which some sectors recover rapidly while others stall or slip back into recession-like circumstances. Broadly speaking, we expect to see this divide take place between manufacturing—which continues to recover extremely quickly—and services—which remains mired in COVID-19-related complications. This atypical recession/recovery environment implies that companies and countries more leveraged to manufacturing (e.g., industrials, Asia) should outperform those that are more leveraged to the services sector (e.g., retail, U.S.).
  • Monetary and fiscal policy has substantially dampened the impact of the pandemic to both the global economy and financial markets. We expect most major central banks to engage in further easing, although for most of them, this will involve little more than tinkering with existing tools as opposed to implementing additional rate cuts; however, we expect central banks to respond forcefully to any sharp increase in yields—this should ultimately keep global government bond yields trading within a narrower range than what we’ve seen historically. We believe they’ll continue to focus on providing ample liquidity to the market and work hard to prevent a financial crisis from materializing.
  • We’re at a point where markets are more likely to be focused on fiscal policy as a driver of current and future growth. We expect government spending to continue, despite already being at historically high levels, even in the United States. We expect fiscal policy to become an increasingly important driver of inflation expectations and the long end of the yield curve in most countries.
  • Investor uncertainty remains high and cautiousness is widely prevalent. This is evidenced by market participants’ bafflement at the elevated valuations of risk assets, the high levels of cash holdings, outflows from equities, and tepid investor sentiment. Risk assets have the tendency to climb walls of worry, and there’s plenty to worry about at the moment. We believe we’re still in the recovery phase of this cycle, and risk assets have more room to run in the coming year, albeit at a more moderate pace. We could see more support for risk assets with the U.S. election in the rearview mirror, where the potential for more monetary and fiscal support and prospects for further medical advancements through vaccines and/or therapeutics for COVID-19 come into view. 
Asset allocation team’s six to 12 month allocation view on equities, as of September 30.. The team is moderately positive on U.S. equities, global emerging markets equities, and Chinese equities. It is neutral on Japanese equities and Canadian equities. It has a slightly negative view of European equities.  Asset allocation team’s six to 12 month allocation view on fixed-income assets, as of September 30. The team has a moderately underweight stance on U.S. government bonds, European government bonds, Japanese government bonds, and Canadian government bonds. It has a moderately positive view of emerging market government bonds and global credit.

Longer-term strategic views

  • We don’t expect any major central bank to raise interest rates in the next five years; however, we concede that there could be attempts to normalize monetary policy through slimming down central bank balance sheets in a few years’ time. This implies investors will need to get used to the idea that interest rates will likely stay at, or below, 0% for the foreseeable future. This should usher in another period in which search for yield becomes a key market theme, pushing investors further out on the risk spectrum in exchange for meaningful returns. As such, we continue to favor asset classes that provide positive carry, and emerging-market debt stands out as one of the more appealing asset classes. 
  • While we continue to incorporate the structurally deflationary impulses of an ageing demographic, rising debt, and ongoing digitalization into our forecast, we also recognize that the combined impact of substantial monetary and fiscal easing—not to mention a global supply-side shock—will likely generate higher inflation expectations. Even as central banks keep short rates well anchored and are unlikely to respond to these inflationary pressures (assuming they remain mild or moderate), the yield curve is likely to steepen at the long end over the next five years.  
  • We expect the U.S. dollar to soften over the next few years. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed’s) efforts to improve U.S. dollar (USD) liquidity should, in our view, help address the dollar shortage issue and contribute to the currency’s gradual weakening over time. From an investment perspective, a weaker greenback should provide some mild to moderate support to emerging-market (EM) assets and select developed-market (DM) equities and fixed income. 
  • China—and, by extension, Asia—is likely to benefit from a relative strengthening of the global manufacturing and trade environment. We continue to expect economic growth in China to structurally decelerate over the multi-year horizon as it moves toward a consumer growth model.  Policy response to COVID-19 should be meaningful enough to keep the deceleration in China gradual.  Outside of China, we expect EM to maintain an attractive valuation profile, benefiting from a global cyclical upswing/rebound, aided by a structurally weaker USD. 
Asset allocation team’s five-year allocation view on equities, as of September 30.. From a strategic perspective, the team has a neutral stance on U.S. equities, European equities, Japanese equities and Chinese equities. It has a moderately positive view of global emerging market equities and Canadian equities. The Asset allocation team’s five-year allocation view on fixed-income assets, as of September 30.. From a strategic perspective, the tam has a moderately underweight stance on U.S. government bonds, European government bonds, Japanese government bonds and Canadian government bonds. It has a moderately positive view of Emerging markets government bonds and global credit.
Table summarizing the asset allocation team’s asset views on fixed income, as of September 30, 2020.  U.S. government bonds: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. We expect the Fed to keep policy rates at the zero lower bound but not engage in negative interest-rate policy. This should provide stable if anemic returns in the U.S. government bond space. In addition, the Fed has articulated its ability and willingness to intervene in the investment-grade (IG) and high-yield (HY) markets as needed, which should translate into limited spread widening in those markets. However, we remain concerned about the tail risk that idiosyncratic solvency issues might cause, which could, in turn, lead to bouts of volatility. U.S. government bonds: from a five-year perspective, moderately negative. While we expect the Fed to keep the front end of the U.S. yield curve pinned down, significant fiscal stimulus and the probable, associated rise in inflation expectations mean longer-duration U.S. Treasuries will likely create some drag in this asset class. Given our expectations for easy monetary policy conditions and continued central bank support (if needed), we view high yield bonds and leveraged loans more favorably than U.S. investment-grade bonds. Emerging market government bonds: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately positive. A weaker USD and an easing of risk aversion heading into 2021—our base case—should provide ample support to emerging market assets. Improvements in global manufacturing and further signs of stability in economic activity in China are likely to translate into additional tailwinds for this asset class. We expect major emerging market central banks to retain their extraordinarily accommodative stance and believe they’ll ease further if needed. Emerging market government bonds: from a five-year perspective, moderately positive. Broadly speaking, we believe EM debt stands out from a total return perspective and will likely benefit from the gradual softening of the U.S. dollar over this period. With policy rates at or below zero in most of the developed world, we expect the search for yield mentality to set in, thereby enhancing the appeal of EM debt because of the carry available in this asset class. In addition, the quality of EM debt has been improving on a structural basis and, at this juncture, we view the asset class as a higher-quality credit relative to U.S. HY and loans. Within the group, we expect local currency-denominated sovereign debt to provide slightly better returns than USD-denominated EM debt. European government bonds: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. We expect yields on European short-term sovereign debt to remain trading in a tight range, staying between current or lower levels. Despite continued investment flows into IG and HY bonds as part of a broader search for yield, an anemic economy and concerns that corporate defaults could be higher in Europe than in the United States has placed a cap on the appeal of the asset class. European government bonds: from a five year perspective: moderately negative. We expect yields on European short-term sovereign debt to remain trading in a tight range, staying between current or lower levels. Despite continued investment flows into IG and HY bonds as part of a broader search for yield, an anemic economy and concerns that corporate defaults could be higher in Europe than in the United States has placed a cap on the appeal of the asset class. Japanese government bonds: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. In the short term, we expect minimal movement in rates as the Bank of Japan’s yield curve control mechanisms cap any upside in yields. Japanese government bond: from a five-year perspective: moderately negative. We expect interest rates in Japan to remain at, or near, 0%, subject to some modest volatility. Inflationary pressure in the country is likely to remain negligible throughout our five-year forecast period, and we expect muted total returns for this asset class. In our modeling, aggregate bond index returns for Japan are minimal. Canadian government bonds: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. We expect returns for this asset class to remain lower than their U.S. peers, in part because of smaller yield differentials. We also believe that the COVID-19 shock will be deeper and more pronounced in Canada than in the United States, given higher levels of debt and a lower household savings rate entering the crisis. Canadian government bonds: from a five-year perspective: moderately negative. In our view, Canadian fixed income will see some offset from a stronger Canadian dollar (currency return), but the asset class is also likely to experience negative price returns. We expect U.S. IG bonds to marginally outperform Canadian bonds in part because of a larger valuation reset in the U.S. IG space. Global credit: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately positive. In our view, investment-grade corporate bonds are very attractively priced relative to sovereign bonds, especially within the context of central bank-buying programs. We think HY bonds may be more compelling relative to some segments in the equities universe because their valuations reflect a more realistic view of the current environment. Global credit: from a five-year perspective: moderately positive. With yields remaining lower for longer, we continue to prefer credit over sovereign bonds, and, similarly, HY and leveraged loans over U.S. IG issues. We remain cautious on certain sectors of the HY market—energy, for example—but believe there’s good room to run within the segment over the next five years.

Table summarizing the asset allocation team’s asset views on equities, as of September 30, 2020. U.S. equities: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately positive. Ample market liquidity has provided an important source of support for U.S. equities. Short-term risk factors and heightened uncertainty are certainly present (weakness in the services sector, the U.S. election, the expected course of fiscal policy, global geopolitics, and a second COVID-19 outbreak); however, we expect these factors to dissipate in early 2021, which could lead to a period of outperformance. U.S. equities: from a five-year perspective: neutral. On a structural basis, the United States has the healthiest long-term economic profile in the developed world. However, our enthusiasm toward this market is tempered by continuing concerns about high valuations. In addition, a slightly weaker USD (particularly against other key DM currencies) could translate into a modest headwind for the asset class. Emerging-market equities: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately positive. As the global manufacturing sector continues to outperform the global services sector in the recovery, supported by an inventory restocking cycle, we expect the asset class—which is heavily levered to global trade and manufacturing—to benefit. Emerging-market equities: from a five-year perspective, moderately positive. In our view, EM equities remain attractive from a long-term valuation perspective. We expect this asset class to maintain a robust growth profile over our five-year forecast period and believe it will benefit from a global cyclical upswing/rebound. A structurally weaker USD could provide a modest tailwind to this asset class. European equities: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. We expect economic growth in Europe to remain bifurcated, with countries/sectors exposed to the global manufacturing impulse faring better than those with a larger services component to continue to reel from the impact of the pandemic as a result of social distancing measures. However, we expect the asset class to be supported by the not insignificant fiscal and monetary policies that have been implemented in the past few months. European equities: from a five-year perspective. neutral. We continue to find the valuation and dividend profiles for the asset class attractive on a long-term basis. A strengthening euro and a cyclical upturn in the 2021/2022 period could translate into additional modest tailwinds. However, this favorable profile is partly offset by the region’s weak growth profile, particularly when compared with its DM peers over the longer run. Japanese equities: from a 6 to 12-month perspective, neutral. Extensive monetary and fiscal stimulus is maintaining a floor under Japanese equities, particularly given the Bank of Japan’s purchase of exchange-traded funds (ETFs). In the near term, the country is also well positioned to benefit from a cyclical recovery globally, particularly China. Japanese equities: from a five-year perspective, neutral. In our view, structural factors in favor of Japanese equities include inexpensive valuation, continued improvement in corporate governance, and generous share buyback programs, which should provide a good counterbalance to the market’s modest growth profile. From a three- to five-year perspective, we remain neutral with a mild positive bias toward the asset class. Canadian equities: from a six to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. Weak oil prices and low interest rates are typically a drag on the energy and financials sectors, which make up a significant portion of the Canadian equities index. While extensive fiscal and monetary policy support is buttressing the economy against the full economic shock of the pandemic, the extent of the near-term recovery will likely be hindered by high consumer debt burden, particularly when compared with the United States. Canadian equities: from a five-year perspective, moderately positive. Despite a weaker long-term growth profile, Canadian equities remain an attractive asset class based on the asset class’s supportive dividend profile, reasonable valuations, and an expected, if modest, tailwind from the gradual appreciation of the Canadian dollar. Chinese equities: from a 6 to 12-month perspective, moderately positive. Chinese equities have been among the best-performing asset classes year to date (both onshore and offshore equities). We expect the Chinese stock market to remain stable on the back of government policy support. Select segments within the onshore space—consumer and technology, for instance—remain strong, offering healthy returns despite high valuations. Although we expect EM to slow in the near term, we believe they could move higher in the coming year due to supportive monetary conditions. In our view, EM and non-U.S. assets are looking attractive from a valuation perspective relative to their DM peers. We find China slightly more attractive than the broader EM universe due to the targeted nature of its stimulus measures and policies, which led to a relaxation of credit standards. Chinese equities: from a five-year perspective, neutral. We’ve maintained the view that Chinese growth will need to decelerate gradually in order to facilitate a rebalancing from its industrial-growth model as it moves toward a consumer-growth model. While the COVID-19 outbreak will hasten the expected slowdown, we expect official policy response to the outbreak to be meaningful enough to keep China in a relatively gradual growth deceleration mode over the next five years. In our view, valuations have become modestly expensive given the shift in focus (particularly among global index providers) away from large state-owned enterprises and toward consumer and technology stocks. As a result, we no longer expect China to benefit from valuation expansion relative to the rest of the world, including EM. We also expect the renminbi to depreciate during the forecast period.

U.S. real estate investment trusts: from a 6 to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. U.S. real estate investment trusts continue to be weighted down by the impact of the health crisis in the short term, most notably in the lodging, retail, financing, and office sectors. We expect fundamentals to remain weak over the near-term horizon. U.S. real estate investment trusts: from a five-year perspective, neutral. Real estate investment trusts continue to trade at compelling valuations relative to 12 months ago, and we expect a rebound to occur over the next five years. Yields within this space should be strong—perhaps stronger than many IG bond sectors. However, we do expect the sector’s recovery to be slow and vary by segment, particularly those most heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. While we have long stated that REITs should be an element of a diversified asset allocation, we’re aware that the way we use commercial real estate could evolve post-COVID-19, which could have implications for the asset class. Global natural resources: from a 6 to 12-month perspective, moderately negative. Oil prices plateaued recently following a sharp rebound in the weeks after hitting historic lows in April. We expect prices to be rangebound for the foreseeable future, and we have a slightly negative view on equities tied to this space in the short term. In the precious metals space, we remain positive on gold—its safe haven status should help it shine in what’s likely to be a period of volatility. Global natural resources: from a five-year perspective, neutral. We expect oil prices to slowly grind higher over the five-year horizon, but we remain cognizant that geopolitical events may temper this rise. Significant fiscal and monetary stimulus may lead to an increase in economic activity, but it could also lead to higher levels of inflation in the longer term, which could augur well for this asset class, especially if supply doesn’t increase substantially. Hard assets: from a 6 to 12-month perspective, neutral. We tend not to make significant shifts in this asset class in the short term due to liquidity issues. Hard assets: from a five-year perspective, moderately favorable. We continue to have a favorable view of the asset class. Hard assets such as infrastructure and real as an attractive fixed-income alternative should appeal to investors who can withstand moderate levels of illiquidity. Direct real estate is likely to experience some of the same challenges as REITs over the immediate term, but for now, it continues to deserve a place in the broader portfolio on a strategic basis.

Important disclosures

A widespread health crisis such as a global pandemic could cause substantial market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, and affect portfolio performance. For example, the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has resulted in significant disruptions to global business activity. The impact of a health crisis and other epidemics and pandemics that may arise in the future, could affect the global economy in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the present time. A health crisis may exacerbate other preexisting political, social, and economic risks. Any such impact could adversely affect the portfolio’s performance, resulting in losses to your investment

Investing involves risks, including the potential loss of principal. Financial markets are volatile and can fluctuate significantly in response to company, industry, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. These risks are magnified for investments made in emerging markets. Currency risk is the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates may adversely affect the value of a portfolio’s investments.
