RESURGENCE OF US EXCEPTIONALISM This is the title of the new issue of #AzimutGlobalView, the summary document of the investment views of our Global Team that work in synergy and integration with the distribution network. 🔹 US Nonfarm payroll reported a 254k increase in September, beating consensus expectations of a 150k increase. The US ISM services indicator also increased more than expected to 54.9, the highest level since February 2023 🔹 In light of recent economic and employment data, it’s likely that the Fed will proceed at a slower pace in its rate-cutting cycle, opting for 25bp cuts rather than 50bp 🔹 The rally in Chinese equities partially reversed after domestic authorities' announcements disappointed market expectations. However, sentiment was stabilized by further communications from the Ministry of Finance (MOF), now leaving investors waiting for the next National People’s Congress (NPC) meeting #Azimut #AzimutGlobalView #AzimutGlobalTeam

🏆 Congratulations to Azimut Investment Management Singapore Ltd. and the whole team for the Awards received at the WealthBriefingAsia EAM Awards 2024!

FED OVERDO, PBOC OVERDUE This is the title of the new issue of #AzimutGlobalView, the summary document of the investment views of our Global Team that work in synergy and integration with the distribution network. 🔹 The Fed began its rate cut cycle with a 50 bps reduction, more than the market expected, and slashed projections of where rates might be at the end of 2024 and 2025. 🔹 Given the trajectory of inflation and the weakening labor market, the Fed is likely to deliver the cuts projected by the dots, with the possibility of doing more if needed. 🔹 After years of market-hostile policies, China has finally pulled out the monetary and fiscal bazooka. The rebound that started last week still has legs. #Azimut #AzimutGlobalView #AzimutGlobalTeam
