Stock Markets Surprised Investment Funds in 2019 but Bearish Sentiment Continues for 2020

The traditional stock market has performed against the predictions of some of the world’s top investment funds. During the start of 2019, financial institutions predicted that stock markets will see a major downturn. However, to their surprise, the Dow Jones surged 18% year-to-date nearing its all-time high.

Similarly, the S&P 500 has given over 24% returns so far this year. With this performance, 2019 is likely to turn out as the second-best performing year in a decade, in terms of annual returns. The data from NATIXIS shows that markets have trumped nearly 41% of the institutions predicting a downturn. Based out of France, the Natixis Investment Managers have pulled this data collected from the world’s top-500 largest investment firms having over $15 trillion assets under management (AUM).

Despite this performance in the traditional markets, uncertainty has been on the rise in the global markets. The long-going U.S.-China trade war and uncertainty about Brexit is making global markets jittery. While the stock market certainly outperformed in 2019, the outlook for 2020 looks bleak.

This year nearly 41% of investment funds predicted a downturn and the number has increased for 2020. Nearly 48% of the investment funds think that 2020 will be challenging for the global market and we can see a downturn ahead.

2020 Global Economy Outlook

Some of the industry experts believe that there will be a surge in trade disputes by the next year. Dave Goodsell from NATIXIS writes:

“Almost three-quarters (73%) project trade will have a negative impact on performance. And with developed markets delivering less than 2% growth, and emerging markets dropping to 4% or less, 67% of institutional investors also believe slow growth will have a negative impact on investment performance”.

The institutional investors have adopted the strategy of “Let’s Wait and See” and nearly six in ten institutions think that low yield will major affect the investment environment in 2020. If we consider a long-term spectrum, nearly 83% of institutions predict a global financial crisis in the next five years.

As per the BofAML survey, nearly 28% of fund managers predict a major market reversal in the next year. However, 59% still think that the recession won’t be coming in the next 12 months. Holger Zschaepitz, a market analyst at Welt, said that the fears of recession have already dampened the investment sentiment.

The ongoing talks between U.S. & China have made fund managers believe that the trade deal will be signed in the near term. However, they still remain skeptical of whether it will be a partial deal or a thorough one.

BNC Research: THE FUTURE OF THE FIRM: How decentralized autonomous organizations are disrupting the centuries old governance and wealth distribution model of the corporation.

This report looks at the future constraints for the shareholder model in its current form, and why decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) will be superior to today’s corporate firm structure. For investors, DAOs will eventually become a less risky investment class compared to shares in a regular company, offering more predictable ROI and better passive returns than most stock dividends - while also minimizing two of the greatest risks in corporate operations - human error and executive self-interest.

By CCN: The frequently volatile stock market provides rare hideouts for investors but one of them could be bitcoin, according to Mr. Peter Boockvar of Bleakley Advisory Group. The chief investment officer said this week that a sharp rise in bitcoin price indicated that investors were unsure about the Federal Reserve’s stance on interest rate cuts, as well as about the outcome of an ongoing trade war between the US and China that kept buying sentiment weaker in both the Western and Asian stock markets.
