White paper Equities: are the odds ever in your favour?

11 March 2021

Equities form the bulk of many investors’ portfolios. If 2020 has taught us anything, it’s that they are also very volatile. Often, it’s hard to know if this is an accepted compromise for the end result, a positive for those that believe they can time markets, or just an unnecessary and avoidable risk.

The questions this paper addresses is just how risky are equity investments, particularly for long-term investors. What sort of danger does this put investors in? Is there a better way of investing in equities, or should we focus on alternative assets (do we need to look beyond the venerable 60 / 40 portfolio)?

Asset Allocation Outlook October

Equity markets had a tough time of it in September. Less growth, more inflation, central banks moving towards tapering their highly-expansionary monetary policies and pushing up bond yields in the process, as well as concerns about the Chinese economy, caused many markets to close the month in the red. After noting a loss in January, it was only the second monthly loss for the MSCI global equity index so far this year. The global equity index was down by 4.2% (in US dollars), with little difference between industrialised countries and emerging markets. Europe (-3.5% in euros) held up slightly better than the US (-4.8% in US dollars). Japan was the notable exception at a plus of 3.5% (in yen); markets anticipate a more expansionary fiscal policy there under a new government.
