Equitable Investors

September 2023


Earnings expectations dropped post the August reporting season on the ASX; global fund flows have been subdued - as have tech sector buyouts and SPACs. While the number of companies talking about recession has receded, rates are still in focus with the inflation-adjusted treasury yield spiking - a move not reflected in the S&P 500 valuation relative to a Credit Suisse model. US mortgage rates have the greatest spread on treasuries in decades. Australians are seeing their rates climb too and are feeling the stress - which ties back into the earnings downgrades for consumer stocks. China equity outflows, by the way, have been notable based on the actions of Hong Kong investors.
