Listen "Our Bottom-Up, Global View of Sectors; Getting More Comfortable With Cyclicals"
Episode Synopsis
Today in the podcast, an update on our outlook for sectors within the US, and some thoughts on sectors from a global perspective based on the results of our latest RBC analyst survey which now includes our teams from Europe, Canada, and Australia in addition to those in the US. Five big things you need to know: First, across the globe, RBC equity analysts are most constructive on Health Care and are least constructive on Consumer Staples. Second, RBC analysts are most constructive on Europe in terms of their performance outlooks, but there is some important nuance to their regional views. Third, looking at the US specifically, our analysts are most constructive on the performance outlooks for Health Care, Energy and Financials, and are least constructive on the performance outlooks for Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, and Utilities. Fourth, in terms of our own US Equity Strategy sector recommendations, we have made two changes, lifting Financials to overweight from market weight and lowering utilities from overweight to market weight. Fifth, cyclicals also stand out in our survey and quant work on Europe.
