"Expectations for GDP growth in 2023 keep getting revised lower as economists are wrapping their collective heads around the idea that a recession is coming.”
— Sébastien Mc Mahon and Adil Mahroug
Highlights:
- Although GDP growth has held through 2022, next year is shaping up to be more fragile.
- The expectations for a coming central bank pivot might be overly optimistic, as history suggests it might not happen until late 2023/early 2024.
- We remain careful about calling the end of the current bear market. Our positioning remains tilted away from equities and more towards sovereign bonds
