- Rollover — "Recent falls in global economic lead indicators and analysts’ revision ratios have raised concerns of a double dip in the global economy. As a result, global equities fell 13% in 2Q10."
- Fears Overdone — "Our economists expect a sustained but uneven global recovery. A rollover in analysts’ net EPS revisions is normal for this point in the cycle. Fears of a global double-dip look overdone in our view."
- Global Equities Just 10x PE — "Cost-cutting and subsequent operational leverage means that we think bottom-up analysts’ forecasts of double-digit global EPS growth in 2011 are achievable. Global equities are currently trading on 10x 2011 EPS forecasts."
- Overweight Japan, UK and Emerging Markets — "Japan is our preferred recovery play. The UK looks cheap in our view, with decent earnings momentum. Premium economic growth means that we remain Overweight EM."
- Global Sector Strategy — "Our belief that double dip fears are overdone means that we Overweight the cyclical sectors where earnings momentum should remain healthy. We are Underweight defensive sectors."
