Global Asset Allocation Views 2Q 2022

Global Fixed Income Views 2Q 2022

We revised our 2Q scenario expectations: Above Trend Growth fell to 50% while Sub Trend Growth rose to 25%, Recession to 15% and Crisis to 10%. Our best ideas include a combination of corporate credit, both investment grade and high yield, and short-duration securitized credit.
