Please find the global macro webinar as promised is attached at the link below. I apologize for the quality of the slides in the presentation; they are quite bad and I couldn’t seem to improve them. But the audio is fine so I suggest you follow along using the PDF version of the slides instead which are also available at the link below.
It is shaping up to be a very interesting year. We are already seeing plenty of opportunities-long the dollar, short stocks, short emerging markets, long bonds, etc. only one-month into the new year.
Just to repeat the major investment themes covered in the webinar recording and on page four of the power point:
- Deflation pressures continue and likely intensify [this is structural]
- No rush to taper aggressively
- US current account improvement and taper – money flows back to center
- Euro crisis likely revisited later in the year – politics and single currency straight jacket
- China muddles through but reform is key – slower GDP growth either way
- Japan still a wildcard
Please let me know if you have questions or would like more information on any of the topics I covered.
Regards,
Jack
