Our Global Head of Fixed Income Research and Public Policy Strategy Michael Zezas and Chief Global Cross-Asset Strategist Serena Tang address themes that are key for markets next year.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michael Zezas: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michael Zezas, Global Head of Fixed Income Research and Public Policy Strategy.Serena Tang: And I'm Serena Tang, Morgan Stanley's Chief Global Cross-Asset Strategist.Michael Zezas: Today we'll be talking about key investor debates coming out of our year ahead outlook.It's Wednesday, December 3rd at 10:30am in New York. So, Serena, it was a couple weeks ago that you led the publication of our cross-asset outlook for 2026. And so, you've been engaging with clients over the past few weeks about our views – where they differ. And it seems there's some common themes, really common questions that come up that represent some important debates within the market. Is that fair?Serena Tang: Yeah, that's very fair. And, by the way, I think those important debates, are from investors globally. So, you have investors in Europe, Asia, Australia, North America, all kind of wanting to understand our views on AI, on equity valuations, on the dollar.Michael Zezas: So, let's start with talking about equity markets a bit. And one of the common questions – and I get it too, even though I don't cover equity markets – is really about how AI is affecting valuations. One of the concerns is that the stock market might be too high, might be overvalued because people have overinvested in anything related to AI. What does the evidence say? How are you addressing that question? Serena Tang: It is interesting you say that because I think when investors talk about equities being too high, of valuations – AI related valuations being very stretched, it's very much about parallels to that 1990s valuation bubble.But the way I approach it is like there are some very important differences from that time period, from valuations back then. First of all, I think companies in major equity indices are higher quality than the past. They operate more efficiently. They deliver strong profitability, and in general pretty solid free cash flow.I think we also need to consider how technology now represents a larger share of the index, which has helped push overall net margins to about 14 percent compared to 8 percent during that 1990s valuation bubble. And you know, when margins are higher, I think paying premium for stocks is more justified.In other words, I think multiples in the U.S. right now look more reasonable after adjusting for profit margins and changes in index composition. But we also have to consider, and this is something that we stress in our outlook, the policy backdrop is unusually favorable, right? Like you have economists expecting the Fed to continue easing rates into next year. We have the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that could lower corporate taxes, and deregulation is continuing to be a priority in the U.S. And I think this combination, you know, monetary easing, fiscal stimulus, deregulation. That combination rarely occurs outside of a recession. And I think this creates an environment that supports valuation, which is by the way why we recommend an overweight position in U.S. equities, even if absolute and relative valuation look elevated.Michael Zezas: Got it. So, if I'm hearing you right, what I think you're saying is that comparisons to some bubbles of the past don't necessarily stack up because profitability is better. There aren't excesses in the system. Monetary policy might be on the path that's more accommodative. And so, when compared against all of that, the valuations actually don't look that bad.Serena Tang: Exactly.Michael Zezas: Got it. And sticking with the equity markets, then another common question is – it's related to AI, but it's sort of around this idea that a small set of companies have really been driving most of the growth in the market recently. And it would be better or healthier if the equity market were to perform across a wider set of companies and names, particularly in mid- and small cap companies. Is that something that we see on the horizon?Serena Tang: Yes. We are expecting U.S. stock earnings to sort of broaden out here and it's one of the reasons why our U.S. equity strategy team has upgraded small caps and now prefer it over large caps. And I think like all of this – it comes from the fact that we are in a new bull market. I think we have a very early cycle earnings recovery here. I mean, as discussed before, the macro environment is supportive. And Fed rate cuts over the next 12 months, growth positive tax and regulatory policies, they don't just support valuations. They also act as a tailwind to earnings.And I think like on top of that, leaner cost structures, improving earnings revisions, AI driven efficiency gains. They all support a broad-based earnings upturn. and our U.S. equity strategy team do see above consensus 2026 earnings growth at 17 percent. The only other region where we have earnings growth above consensus in 2026 is Japan; for both Europe and the EM we are below, which drive out equal weight and slight underweight position in those two indices respectively.Michael Zezas: Got it. And so, since we can't seem to get away from talking about AI and how it's influencing markets, the other common question we get here is around debt issuance related to AI.So, our colleagues put together a report from earlier this year talking about the potential for nearly $3 trillion of AI related CapEx spending over the next few years. And we think about half of that is going to have to be debt financed. That seems to be a lot of debt, a lot of potential bonds that might be issued into the market – which, are credit investors supposed to be concerned about that?Serena Tang: We really can't get away from AI as a topic. And I think this will continue because AI-related CapEx is a long-term trend, with much of the CapEx still really ahead. And I think this goes to your question. Because this really means that we expect nearly another [$]3 trillion of data center related CapEx from here to 2028. You know, while half of the spend will come from operating cash flows of hyperscalers, it still leaves a financing gap of around [$]1.5 trillion, which needs to be sourced through various credit channels.Now, part of it will be via private credit, part of it would be via Asset Backed Securities. But some of it would also be via the U.S. investment grade corporate credit bond space. So, add in financing for faster M&A cycle, we forecast around [$]1 trillion in net investment grade bond issuance, you know, up 60 percent from this year.And I think given this technical backdrop, even though credit fundamentals should stay fine, we have doubled downgraded U.S. investment grade corporate credit to underweight within our cross asset allocation.Michael Zezas: Okay, so the fundamentals are fine, but it's just a lot of debt to consume over the next year. And so somewhat strangely, you might expect high yield corporate bonds actually do better.Serena Tang: Yes, because I think a high yield doesn't really see the same headwind from the technical side of things. And on the fundamentals front, our credit team actually has default rates coming down over the next 12 months, which again, I think supports high yield much better than investment grade.Michael Zezas: So, before we wrap up, moving away from the equity markets, let's talk about foreign exchange. The U.S. dollar spent much of last year weakening, and that's a call that our team was early to – eventually became a consensus call. It was premised on the idea that the U.S. was going to experience growth weakness, that there would also be these questions among investors about the role of the dollar in the world as the U.S. was raising trade barriers. It seemed to work out pretty well. Going into 2026 though, I think there's some more questions amongst our investors about whether or not that trend could continue. Where do we land?Serena Tang: I think in the first half of next year that downward pressure on the dollar should still persist. And you know, as you said, we've had a very differentiated view for most of this year, expecting the dollar to weaken in the first half versus G10 currencies. And several things drive this. There is a potential for higher dollar negative risk premium, driven by, I think, near term worries about the U.S. labor markets in the short term. And as investors, I think, debate the likely composition of the FOMC next year. Also, you know, compression in U.S. versus rest of the world. Rate differentials should reduce FX hedging costs, which also adds incentive for hedging activity and dollar selling. All this means that we see downward pressure on the dollar persisting in the first half of next year with EUR/USD at 123 and USD/JPY at 140 by the end of first half 2026.Michael Zezas: All right. Well, that's a pretty good survey about what clients care about and what our view is. So, Serena, thanks for taking the time to talk with me today.Serena Tang: And thank you for inviting me to the show today.Michael Zezas: And to our audience, thanks for listening.

Im 50.000 € Double-Digit Dividend Depot mache ich heute den nächsten Core-Schritt: BPCR (BioPharma Credit) verlässt das Kernportfolio, dafür kommt das IncomeShares Silver Plus Yield ETP neu hinein – mit monatlicher Ausschüttung und einer Ziel-Ausschüttungsrendite um 10 %. Vor dem Kauf gibt's einen fokussierten Marktcheck (S&P 500, Emerging Markets, STOXX Europe 600, EUR↔USD), ein Update zur Dividendenentwicklung (u. a. Global Select Dividend 100 / All-World Yield) und die Einordnung, warum Covered-Call-Bausteine in Phasen höherer Volatilität die Cashflows stabilisieren.Das Projekt verfolgt ein klares Ziel: rund 10 % Ausschüttungsrendite p. a. mit möglichst monatlichen Cashflows – also etwa 5.000 € pro Jahr bei 50.000 € Depotvolumen. Die Konstruktion bleibt breit diversifiziert und in Teilen unkorreliert (Aktien, Anleihen, Edelmetalle, Optionsstrategien), sodass das Einkommen auch in schwierigeren Marktphasen verlässlich fließt und das Rendite-/Risikoprofil insgesamt robuster wird.Im heutigen Video erkläre ich, warum BPCR im Core nicht mehr perfekt passt (Alternatives-Charakter) und wie das IncomeShares Silver Plus Yield ETP als Edelmetall-Baustein Upside-Partizipation ohne aggressiven Cap mit monatlichen Payouts kombiniert. Danach schauen wir ins Depot: Ausschüttungen der letzten Wochen (u. a. Covered-Call-ETFs, EM-Bonds, MLPs, EuroStoxx 50 CC) und der Blick auf Gold & Silber – nicht als All-in-These, sondern als Diversifikationsmotor. Zum Schluss: Verkauf BPCR, Kauf IncomeShares Silver Plus Yield – inklusive Order, Ausführung und Reinvest der Cashflows.Mein 10 % Dividende-Depot setze ich in hier um: https://tinyurl.com/4et4a624 (Partner-Link)Bei Freedom24 profitiert ihr von: ✅ Echter persönlicher Ansprechpartner (alleinstellungsmerkmal) ✅ Echter Options und Anleihe Handel (Seltenheit) ✅ Schnellerer Professioneller Status (für US-ETFs)

In this week's Macro Mondays, James Brodie, James Todd, and Spyridon Kokas, break down a week of record highs and rising uncertainty. Japan's new Prime Minister, Senae Takaichi, pledged sweeping stimulus, sending the Nikkei up nearly 5% and the Yen down 2%, as debt fears grew. In Europe, French Prime Minister Lecornu resigned after less than a month, driving Euro weakness and a sell-off in French bonds, now yielding above Italy's. U.S. data remains scarce amid the government shutdown, with consumer confidence plunging and UBS pegging recession odds at 90%. Gold surged to new all-time high alongside the S&P500, Nasdaq, NVIDIA, and Bitcoin, while silver, platinum and palladium also surged higher; however, Brent struggled near $65/bbl. Bitcoin hit fresh records as liquidity flooded risk assets. With Powell set to speak and four Fed cuts priced in, the team debates whether gold's relentless rally or the market's euphoria is telling the real macro story.

So let's talk about that and more. Right now. Hey there, Forex Traders! It's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video on podcast number 607. Do you want to know how to trade Cryptos?  So today we're actually not talking about forex. We're going to be talking about cryptos. You see this so many people out there jumping on the bandwagon of buying cryptos. And unfortunately most people don't really know what they're doing. The trouble is that just buying cryptos or coins because of that whole FOMO, the fear of missing out. I want to buy Bitcoin. And a classic example of that is just a few weeks ago, I was talking to a friend of mine and she said, look, Andrew, I've gone and bought some Bitcoin. I said, fantastic, but why did you buy a Bitcoin when it was an almost like it's an all time high. So far it was up close to $124,000 USD. And you know that so far has been the highest it's ever got to. And she said oh well, I've just got some money through the sale of a property and I thought I'd buy some bitcoin. You know, I don't want to miss out and I think it's going to go higher and higher. I said, well, okay, look if you're willing to hold it for, you know, months, years, it could still well be an okay decision. But the here's the issue that I find with so many people is they are not buying a crypto for a particular reason. They buy Bitcoin because they know Bitcoin. And everybody says it's going to go to 200,000. And so you're buying it thinking it's going to go up. Probably not a great way of doing it. And there's probably other things you can do to make that decision better. What's your local exchange rate against the USD? Now added on top of this, if you don't live in the US and you're buying it in equivalent of another currency, like for me and my friend who is New Zealand dollars right now, the New Zealand US dollar rate is really, really terrible for us because the US is strong and then New Zealand is weak. And therefore if you're buying an equivalent in US dollars, you've got a double whammy. You've got the let's say Bitcoin that almost an all time high. And you've got the NZD/USD rate at very low rate. So you're getting smashed on both sides. It's costing you a lot of money in your local currency to go and buy already a high value product such as Bitcoin. Trade Crypto using my proven FX strategy. Now take this back to how we trade and how we can help you. There's a few things you can do because we trade cryptos using my proven forex strategy in exactly the same way as we would trade, let's say the EUR/USD. And what we're using is technical analysis. And you can apply some very simple basic. Once you know what you're doing technical analysis to make your crypto decisions better. So let's stick with our example of buying Bitcoin. Wait for a pullback first. Instead of just randomly buying Bitcoin at today's price. You could instead use some good technical knowledge and wait for a pullback and then a bullish opportunity to go long again and buy it at a lower and better price.
