Stormy weather and busy waterways made the New York Sail Grand Prix hugely challenging last weekend. But it was a valuable learning opportunity for the Germany SailGP Team against the spectacular backdrop of Lower Manhattan. "There are so many ferries passing here that cause great waves that you have to be incredibly careful," said team strategist Sophie Steinlein. Rough weather also led to the final fleet race on Saturday being cancelled and an earlier start to racing on Sunday. Germany placed ninth overall, but driver Erik Heil said he was happy with the way the crew pulled together, commenting: "We're happy, and it was good that we drove again under such conditions to improve ourselves." The team also took the opportunity to celebrate LGBT Pride Month, with the Deutsche Bank Pride logo on the main sail. Next stop, San Francisco! As proud founding partner of the Germany SailGP Team, we’re rethinking performance sustainably.

In this week’s CIO Weekly Investment Outlook, the Private Bank’s Chief Investment Officer for Europe, Middle East and Africa, Dr. Dirk Steffen, took a historical view to evaluate this year’s surge, and recent volatility, in megacap technology stocks. “We have to have that discussion”, Dirk said. “But we don’t think that we are already in bubble territory.” Politics entered the conversation, as investors turn to focus on elections in France and the U.K. and consider the implications. In the week ahead, Dirk noted that markets will also be focused on U.S. jobs data on Friday for a view of the state of the economy, and also for the potential impact on Federal Reserve interest-rate policy – particularly after last week’s softening inflation data.

Sharing investment market insight, our global Chief Investment Officer Christian Nolting spoke to CNBC Asia in #Singapore. Discussing equity markets, Nolting said: “We’ve seen market concentration in the last few weeks. But we like a barbell strategy, where you add small caps with large caps.” “We barbell fixed income too, either side of the curve. The short end is likely to come down a bit while the long end is quite stable. We want investment grade first, then we will look at high yield when growth comes back,” he said.

Speaking on Bloomberg TV in Singapore, our Americas CIO Deepak Puri, CFA said the Japanese Yen’s decline may be less a story about Japan and more a story about the U.S dollar strength. “We are living in a rate driven world, and that’s my concern looking at the world from a dollar lens,” he added. Discussing BOJ policy, Puri said, “We don’t expect any intervention any time soon, and it seems that 164 could be that technical break.” Commenting on Japanese equities, Puri added that the Nikkei has had quite a strong run-up in last couple of years, and recent moves are likely to be tactical. “We are still slightly overweight on our Japanese call, versus our neutral allocation,” he added.

The Private Bank's global CIO, Christian Nolting, was recently on Bloomberg TV to review the state of markets as the first half draws to a close — and to consider the outlook for the rest of the year and beyond. "I think markets are a bit priced to perfection… If there is some disappointment in earnings, there could be a consolidation", Christian said, and noted that that could be a healthy thing. He and his Private Bank colleagues expect stocks to grind higher over the next 12 months, with a target of 5600 for the S&P 500 by mid-2025. And while investors digest potential political risks from recent and impending elections, Christian said that none so far suggest it is time for major portfolio shifts. "You should not give up your traditional strategy", Christian said.

In this week’s CIO Weekly Investment Outlook podcast, titled ‘FX in the shadow of rates’, the Private Bank’s Chief Investment Officer in APAC, Stefanie Holtze-Jen, CFDS, puts inflation data and FX under the lens, and discusses recent key moves in JPY, AUD, CNY, EUR, and CHF. Stefanie says the Swiss Franc (CHF) strengthened as a safe haven ahead of France’s election this weekend, giving the Swiss Central Bank reason for a surprise rate cut. In the Asia Pacific region, Stefanie says this week’s inflation data could trigger the Bank of Japan to hike rates in July, which could put a lid on depreciation of the Yen which is approaching 159JPY/USD. Stefanie explains the gradual weakening of China’s Renminbi (RMB), pointing to pressure from Japan’s export orientated Yen, and the stronger US dollar which is backed by rates higher for longer. In Australia, while the RBA held rates steady in the latest meeting, watch for new inflation data this week which could suggest another hike may be on the way. Coming up in the US, personal spending, GDP, and PCE data will give a better sense of the US macro backdrop and rates outlook. Tune in and listen to Stefanie’s key thoughts for the week ahead.
