August was characterised by heightened volatility, with global equities seeing erratic movements early in the month before gaining some stability and locking in solid gains overall (MSCI World Index: 3.2%, MSCI Emerging Markets Index: 1.9%). The aggressive sell-off at the start of the month was underpinned by fears of a recession in the United States (US), heightened geopolitical concerns, a move away from expensive technology stocks, and the violent “unwind” of the Japanese carry trade. View our full market overview here: https://lnkd.in/dxu5Z-QP Highlights from the market overview include: - The recovery in the US market (S&P 500 Index: 2.5%) was bolstered by a fresh batch of supportive economic data. July retail sales beat estimates and weekly jobless claims for the period ended 10 August, which hit the lowest levels since early July and helped to restore confidence in the resilience of the world’s largest economy. Investors then shifted their attention towards the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium where US Federal Reserve Chairperson, Jerome Powell, all but confirmed a September rate cut. - The Eurozone also locked in solid gains over the month, with the Euro Stoxx 600 Index increasing by approximately 2.7% as market participants continued to cheer growing expectations for dovish policy action. More recently, easing price pressures in two major Eurozone economies, namely Germany and Spain, provided additional support for further rate cuts at the European Central Bank’s (ECB) next meeting. - China remained on the backfoot with the MSCI China Index delivering a lacklustre performance, ending the month flat as investors remained skittish about growth prospects in the world’s second largest economy. The Chinese economy expanded 4.7% y-o-y in 2Q24, missing market forecasts of 5.1%. - Locally, the JSE All Share Index (4.2%; USD: 8.2%) maintained upward momentum as generally positive themes (i.e. a favourable election outcome, more secure energy supply and growing expectations for lower interest rates) continued to bolster sentiment and drive flows. #MarketOverview #EconomicCommentary #AssetManagement #Economy #GlobalMarkets #Investing

Patrice Rassou, our Chief Investment Officer, discusses #marketinsights with eNCA. They reflect on the JSE's performance and the factors contributing to its recent rally. Attention is focused on Fed Chair Jerome Powell, as his upcoming decision on potentially cutting interest rates in September could impact the Dollar and influence the SARB's next move. He also provides a performance update on the Asian markets. Watch here: https://lnkd.in/dDMnUptw
