Once again, high yield markets delivered positive returns through the rate-hiking cycle. Interestingly “fallen angels” (companies with former investment grade bond ratings that have since been downgraded to high yield), performed better than the broad high yield market despite higher average interest rate risk. Should investors looking for higher bond yields consider a dedicated fallen angels strategy? Read more here: https://bit.ly/3x7fGv0 Capital at risk. For professional investors only.

Christopher Broadley, portfolio manager, said: “Marginally positive returns across equity markets in August masked significant intra-month volatility, with some indices experiencing drawdowns of between 5%-10%. Japanese equities were a stand-out, with the Nikkei 225 posting its worst 3-day performance on record. The volatility of Korean and Taiwanese equity markets, and the US small-caps and US tech sector, were also notable. Given that two-way risks to growth have become more balanced over recent months, we have trimmed some exposure in equities and edged up duration.” Click here to view our chart of the week: https://bit.ly/4b9z354 Capital at risk.
