Market Update

New year, same vibe

 

It may be a new year, but U.S. financial markets still have the same vibe. This week, the S&P 500 oscillated within the same range it has been in since the middle of December. It moved up on hints that inflation is receding, and down on data points that suggest a stubbornly strong labor market. Under the surface, sectors that do better when economic growth is strong (e.g., financials, industrials and materials) have done well, while mega-cap technology and energy stocks have lagged.

Outside the United States, the vibes do seem to be shifting. In December, China rapidly removed many COVID restrictions. Markets are excited. Chinese stocks have rallied 50% from the late October lows, with the latest 10% coming in just the first few trading days of 2023. Post-COVID normalization should provide a boost to the Chinese (and global) economy through 2023.

European markets are likewise off to a relatively strong start, gaining over 3% in as many days. This continues a run of impressive performance. Over the last six months, Eurozone equities are up 15%. The S&P 500 is flat over the same period. Despite the cost-of-living crisis driven by the war in Ukraine and the resulting food and energy shortages, economic activity has been better than anticipated, and the warm winter has alleviated the natural gas shortages. In fact, natural gas prices are back down to where they started in 2022.

EUROPEAN EQUITIES HAVE BEEN RESILIENT DESPITE CHALLENGES

This chart shows the price return of Eurozone and U.S. equities from July 5, 2022, to January 5, 2023. Eurozone stocks rose 12% by mid-August 2022, fell to a low of -5% by the end of September, then rallied near a high of 14.6% by early December. As of early January 2023, they were up 14.7%. Meanwhile, U.S. equities rose 12% by mid-August 2022, fell to a low of -7% by mid-October 2022, then rallied to 6.5% by late November 2022. They then fell toward 0% by early January 2023.

Heading into this year, many feared that the three major economic blocks of the United States, Europe and China would all be dealing with stagnant to recessionary economic growth. While recession risk looms in the United States, reopening in China and a rapid improvement in European energy supplies have seemingly removed the worst-case scenarios for those two regions.

Spotlight

What could surprise us in 2023

 

In December, we released our outlook for 2023. There, you can find why we believe that even as growth weakens throughout 2023, markets will probably have a better year than they did in 2022. We also discuss how we are managing portfolios through continued turbulence, and where we think investors can find opportunity.

But what might surprise? Here are three scenarios we think are realistic, but which aren’t part of our base case.

1. Do you believe in miracles? China and Europe will materially outperform. China’s surprise reopening after three years of stringent COVID containment policies will not only provide a tailwind to domestic Chinese economic growth, but also to many global companies that are also exposed to spending by Chinese households. Luxury players (such as LVMH) and travel (such as Hilton) are two areas that immediately come to mind. There are also signs that the onerous regulatory environment that deflated public company valuations is starting to shift. In December, U.S. authorities announced they will have full access to audits of Chinese companies that trade on U.S. exchanges. This removes the risk that those companies would have to de-list, which has been a clear overhang.

Europe, meanwhile, now has a surplus of natural gas after a keen focus on building storage in the fall, the rapid construction of LNG import facilities in Germany, and a very mild winter. China is the third-largest source of revenue for European companies, so economic reopening should provide an earnings tailwind. Finally, the end of negative interest rate policy in the region should encourage capital that fled due to paltry yields to return, and could help boost European bank earnings. A weaker dollar provides another tailwind for U.S.-based investors in assets outside the United States. Oh, and one of our least favorite market segments, mega-cap tech, is much less represented in European indices.

In 2023, Chinese and European assets could outperform their U.S. peers to the tune of 15%–20%.

2. Forget a hard landing or soft landing. We won’t have any landing at all in 2023. Many outlooks we have seen expect equity markets to have a tough first half of 2023, as they anticipate a U.S. recession (a hard landing) by the second half of the year. Those that are more sanguine believe the Federal Reserve can stop hiking rates because price inflation and the labor market will settle in a much more balanced place without too much economic damage (a soft landing). But there is a case to be made for no landing at all.

Despite headlines that big tech firms are planning to reduce their workforces, the broad labor market has shown no signs of weakness. Initial jobless claims are still remarkably stable at very low levels, and survey data suggests that most of those who have been fired from tech jobs have been finding new work relatively quickly. The quits rate, which is a good indicator of how comfortable workers feel about their prospects for finding a new job, actually rose last month. 

A POSITIVE: REAL INCOME ON THE RISE

Consumer wages and salaries less inflation, 6-month % annualized

Source: Bureau of Economic Analysis, Haver Analytics. Data as of October 31, 2022. Note: U.S. PCE used for inflation.

This strength in the labor market comes at a time when price inflation is falling. This means that real income for workers is rising, which could support more spending, which would encourage companies to continue hiring. Of course, this would keep upward pressure on wages, and would incentivize the Fed to keep hiking rates through the balance of the year.

In 2023, we may not see the end of the tightening cycle for the Fed or a recession in the United States.

3. Wall Street: Don’t call it a comeback. The industries that felt the impacts of higher rates most acutely last year were finance and real estate. Initial public offerings, high yield debt issuance, mergers and acquisitions, mortgage applications and home sales all collapsed at their fastest rate since the Global Financial Crisis. Of course, the Fed is probably to blame. Higher financing costs are meant to slow down activity, but the rate of change in interest rates also had a material impact. Businesses, bankers and prospective homeowners all paused to see where the ceiling on interest rates was before borrowing and dealmaking.

Even though rates will remain at a higher level in 2023, their stability will help spur more activity in interest-rate-sensitive sectors. Take mortgage rates for example: Over the last five years, they have been about ~180 basis points (bps) above the 10-year Treasury rate. Last year, they were ~270 bps above the 10-year Treasury rate. As rate volatility comes down, so too should mortgage rates, which could breathe some life into the housing market.

As for the rest of Wall Street, there are deals that need to get done. The technology, media and telecom space needs to restructure after a painful year. Could Alphabet spin off YouTube? What is the long-term plan that Disney has for Hulu and ESPN? Could a Hulu/Peacock merger and spinoff make sense? Why does Amazon have a retail and a cloud computing business under the same roof? Warren Buffett always seems to be looking for a deal. Could a company like Textron, which makes Cessna airplanes and E-Z-Go golf carts, make sense? Peloton still has a loyal following and a large user base. Could a large company like Nike or Apple use it as a catalyst to build out a connected fitness platform?

In 2023, lower volatility in markets could lead to a recovery in mortgage activity, M&A, and IPO and debt issuance.

No matter what surprises 2023 might have in store, your J.P. Morgan team is here to help guide your financial plan.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INVESTMENTS AND POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Conflicts of interest will arise whenever JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or any of its affiliates (together, “J.P. Morgan”) have an actual or perceived economic or other incentive in its management of our clients’ portfolios to act in a way that benefits J.P. Morgan. Conflicts will result, for example (to the extent the following activities are permitted in your account): (1) when J.P. Morgan invests in an investment product, such as a mutual fund, structured product, separately managed account or hedge fund issued or managed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or an affiliate, such as J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.; (2) when a J.P. Morgan entity obtains services, including trade execution and trade clearing, from an affiliate; (3) when J.P. Morgan receives payment as a result of purchasing an investment product for a client’s account; or (4) when J.P. Morgan receives payment for providing services (including shareholder servicing, recordkeeping or custody) with respect to investment products purchased for a client’s portfolio. Other conflicts will result because of relationships that J.P. Morgan has with other clients or when J.P. Morgan acts for its own account.

Investment strategies are selected from both J.P. Morgan and third-party asset managers and are subject to a review process by our manager research teams. From this pool of strategies, our portfolio construction teams select those strategies we believe fit our asset allocation goals and forward-looking views in order to meet the portfolio’s investment objective.

As a general matter, we prefer J.P. Morgan managed strategies. We expect the proportion of J.P. Morgan managed strategies will be high (in fact, up to 100 percent) in strategies such as, for example, cash and high-quality fixed income, subject to applicable law and any account-specific considerations.

While our internally managed strategies generally align well with our forward-looking views, and we are familiar with the investment processes as well as the risk and compliance philosophy of the firm, it is important to note that J.P. Morgan receives more overall fees when internally managed strategies are included. We offer the option of choosing to exclude J.P. Morgan managed strategies (other than cash and liquidity products) in certain portfolios.

The Six Circles Funds are U.S.-registered mutual funds managed by J.P. Morgan and sub-advised by third parties. Although considered internally managed strategies, JPMC does not retain a fee for fund management or other fund services.
