This document from JPMorgan discusses global asset allocation, with a focus on local risks and opportunities dominating investment strategies. The document mentions that US activity data is better than hoped, but consumer response to higher taxes is uncertain. It also highlights the search for carry in fixed income markets and Japan as a main country overweight in equities. Additionally, it notes that credit remains the troubled asset class with spreads wider in most markets, especially in emerging market external debt. The overall investment theme for this year appears to be a number of unrelated local forces with largely local impact, rather than a general global investment theme.

The Sunday Night Insight discusses the recent pullback in US equities, which has led to some clients questioning whether this is the beginning of the end of a nearly 10-year bull market. However, the authors argue that this pullback is actually smaller than previous ones and does not necessarily signal an impending recession. They highlight several steady factors, such as economic growth, benign inflation, robust earnings, and low probability of recession, which remain in place despite the unsteady undertow created by trade tensions with China and other geopolitical concerns. Overall, they conclude that the steady factors will likely continue to outweigh the risks posed by the unsteady undertow.

The J.P. Morgan View discusses how US elections have affected asset allocation, economic outlooks, and market risks. They believe that the equity market has priced out a Romney win scenario and that medium-term equities and credit are still overweight despite volatility caused by the fiscal cliff negotiations. The focus is on EM Asia, Cyclical stocks, and US Home builders for overweights in equities. Fixed income should see yields head higher with an emphasis on spread compression trades. They recommend being long the dollar during fiscal cliff negotiations and remaining medium-term overweight both credit and equities against cash, government debt, and commodities, as they do not think an Obama victory changes economic outlooks or risks significantly.
