Market Shift to Peace Trades: Bank of America's chief investment strategist, Michael Hartnett, notes a significant shift in financial markets towards "peace trades," driven by falling oil prices, a weaker dollar, and stable bond yields, which could lead to a bull market in emerging markets.
Investment Flows Indicate Optimism: Recent data shows a surge in investments into risk assets, with notable inflows into stocks and bonds, while gold experienced a slight outflow. Hartnett suggests that the late 2020s may reflect either an inflationary or disinflationary peace dividend, impacting future market stability.
