2021 is now behind us. How are we positioning our managed accounts for 2022? What do we believe we have to look forward to and what sectors do we believe we should allocate to and when?
These, of course, are great questions. Currently, the world is enduring the increased cases of the Omicron variant. Being much more contagious than previous variants, time will tell how severe the overall impact will be on economies, country by country and sector by sector.
Based on the incredible surge of equity values in 2021 and the increase in earnings per share, we believe 2022 will be a year of moderation. Moderation will occur in almost every sector class: energy, commodities, equities, bonds, inflation and subsequently portfolios.
