Trade Ideas
Nannette Hechler-Fayd’Herbe EMEA CIO, Lombard Odier 9:49
European stocks offer catch-up potential
European equities have barely risen since the start of the year and could catch up if Middle East tensions resolve and oil prices normalize, offering value relative to the concentration in US markets.
Nannette Hechler-Fayd’Herbe EMEA CIO, Lombard Odier 10:04
Healthcare sector is undervalued
The healthcare sector has underperformed but offers great value, making it a contrarian opportunity for a catch-up rally.
Nannette Hechler-Fayd’Herbe EMEA CIO, Lombard Odier 13:25
Software sector is attractive within tech
Within the technology sector, software has been disfavored and offers a better risk-reward than the broader tech rally, which may see short-term profit-taking.
Nannette Hechler-Fayd’Herbe EMEA CIO, Lombard Odier 13:34
EM equities are top pick
Emerging market equities are the firm's absolute favorite region due to attractive valuations and finally strong earnings, benefiting from a multipolar world.
Ven Ram Markets Live Reporter/Strategist, Bloomberg 46:05
Treasury yields will move higher
US Treasury yields are likely to rise further because the economy is strong, core PCE is well above 3%, and the Fed may turn hawkish despite market expectations of dovish policy.
