Declining cash rates and investors’ healthy appetite for risk saw high yield credit spreads fall sharply in 2019, resulting in favourable returns from the asset class. In this update, Matt Philo and Jason Epstein, Co-Heads of High Yield, outline some of the factors that might affect sentiment in the months ahead and consider whether high yield credit can make further progress in the remainder of 2020.
2023 has thus far been a more upbeat year than 2022 for Asian Fixed Income, with positive returns year-to-date driven in part by the anticipated slowdown in the Federal Reserve’s pace of rate hikes, as well as China’s border re-opening.

Global credit markets have been challenged in 2018 and spreads have widened. Asian issuers have not been immune from this volatility. Following another default by a Chinese issuer, we take stock of where markets are currently, what opportunities (if any) are present in the region, and outline how investors can gain exposure to the asset class if desired.
The three key themes driving the Asian credit market’s performance this year have been the US Federal Reserve’s tightening monetary conditions amid record high inflation, negative sentiments towards China especially its zero-Covid policies and global recession concerns.
The Great Transition highlighted many of the pressures facing the modern day firm or corporation. These include the challenge of competition, greater information and the application of productivity enhancing technology.

Global/US As we move into 2025, US growth and Trump’s policies upon his inauguration will be the key drivers of credit markets. We believe US growth will likely moderate as Biden’s government spending along with job creation will soon cease. In fact, our team has strong conviction that Trump would immediately undo many of Biden’s policies, sharply reduce spending in the government related sectors, before shifting the attention to boost the private sector. With other regions also slowing, especially in Europe, we could move into a period of slower global growth as Trump’s pro-business policies will take time to impact the real economy.

Asian Quality Bond Monthly Review and Outlook - as at July 2020
We are entering a new era. The year 2024 will be unpredictable and clouded by many uncertainties. It will be marked by geopolitical risks, the ongoing taming of the inflation beast, and how the US Presidential election will impact markets.
Concentration in equity markets has reached unprecedented levels, particularly in the United States. A select few mega-cap stocks, colloquially referred to as the "Magnificent 7," now dominate market indices, reflecting a convergence of technological innovation, speculative enthusiasm, and the allure of generative AI.
