Factors in Today's Market Dynamics

Released on Tuesday, May 16, 2023ECONOMY
The North American equity markets at present closely resemble the patterns established during the 2000-02 bear market in the aftermath of the Internet bubble. In both cases an extremely expensive market has been badly affected by sharply rising interest rates leading to an initial bear market as price/earnings multiples contracted, as happened last year. Now an inverted yield curve is forecasting a recession, which means earnings are likely to fall leading to a second leg down, meaning investors should focus on defensive sectors with reasonable valuations.
