Asset Allocation Outlook March

11 March 2020

It took a while for the corona virus to really infect the financial markets. But when it spread also outside of China, things went fast. The stock markets dropping 15% in one week was virtually unknown. When oil prices also tanked following a dispute between Saudi Arabia and Russia, markets panicked.

Please see Kempen’s Asset Allocation Outlook for March. The highlights this month are: 

  • Great uncertainty about the economic impact of the corona virus
