No Yellow Flags
Thursday, October 26th, 2017Sector dynamics of early bear markets
A large rise in excess volatility (equity volatility minus bond volatility) is a good indicator of the onset of a bear market in the US and elsewhere. It also works at the sector level for those sectors which peak early, before the dynamics of contagion take over. Every bear market is different, but there are similarities in the early phases. Apart from Telecom, which is a very small sector, there are no warning signs at the US sector level at the moment.

International Bears
Wednesday, October 18th, 2017Excess volatility as an indicator of trouble ahead
After last week’s note about excess volatility in the US, we look at the experience of other developed markets in 2000, 2007 and 2015. In a majority of occasions, material increases in excess volatility signaled the onset of a correction and/or the transformation to a full-scale bear market. There are no such signals at the current time, which we regard as comforting, though not conclusive, evidence in favour of our equity overweight. |

A Bolt from the Blue
Thursday, October 12th, 2017How to spot the next bear market
Provided that that causes of the next bear market in US equities originate in the US, investors should have time to adjust their asset allocation before the correction turns into a full-scale bear market. The necessary rise in excess volatility (equities minus bonds) takes several months and cannot happen without someone noticing.
