The global financial landscape is experiencing a surge in investor risk appetite, highlighted by a new high in the Global Stock Bond Ratio and the highest level of risk-taking by Global Fund Managers since November 2021. Additionally, financial conditions have eased since October 2022, bolstering market stimulus.
This positive sentiment is evident as the majority of global equity markets are in the black this year. While the strongest trending assets in the AAA Model remain consistent with last month, the Japanese Equity Market has replaced India. Japan's stock market is trending robustly, benefiting from risk-on sentiment and a weaker yen, but given its volatility, investors need to carefully assess its suitability.
