Q4 2024 Investment Outlook
Waves of transformation
The world could be undergoing a transformation akin to past technological revolutions. But the speed, size and impact of that investment is highly uncertain. We think leaning into the transformation and adapting as the outlook changes will be key.
Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.
Investment themes
01
Getting real
We see a new wave of investment into the real economy transforming economies and markets. Spotting winners will require deep insights on the technology being developed – and the potential disruption it entails.
02
Leaning into risk
We look for investments that can do well across scenarios and lean into the current most likely one. For us, that’s a concentrated artificial intelligence scenario where AI winners and other beneficiaries can keep driving stocks.
03
Spotting the next wave
Investors should look for where the next wave of investment opportunity may come. We stay dynamic and ready to overhaul asset allocations when outcomes can be starkly different.
