The business information service cites several <strong>key 2020 takeaways<\/strong> from global asset allocators including BlackRock and JPMorgan Asset Management.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The most exciting part of the story began in March<\/strong>, when both debt and equity markets tumbled almost overnight, challenging a long-held view that a negative correlation exists between stocks and bonds. Then, as governments and central banks flooded markets with liquidity, few expected such a speedy turnaround, recounts the business information service. \u201cNormally you get more time to position your portfolio in a correction \u2026 [but] markets [were] moving so fast,\u201d Mumbai-based co-chief investment officer Mahesh Patil said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And nothing this year rallied faster than tech: <\/strong>The top 10 US stocks that led the post-March rally were all tech-related. Investors need to adopt valuation methods for tech stocks that take into account intangible factors such as goodwill and intellectual property, and not just traditional methods, Hong Kong-based Principal Global Investors\u2019 Alan Wang says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Assets linked to ESG also outperformed, <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/cad6fcf9-f755-4988-9c75-d41a9b6ff6d8\">the Financial Times says<\/a><\/strong><strong>, proving wrong many <\/strong><strong>sustainability doubters. <\/strong>An FTSE gauge of stocks involved in clean energy, climate change, and ESG is up 35% so far into the year due to large inflows by funds shifting their strategies toward impact investing. Those funds increase their ESG-linked assets under management by some 32% this year to a record USD 1.82 tn, data compiled by Bloomberg showed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If it\u2019s one thing market volatility has shown us, it\u2019s the power of bottom-up portfolio <\/strong><strong>building<\/strong>, or selective investing in strong companies able to withstand rough patches. \u201cThe resilience of stocks in a year like this helps to prove their worth and justify their higher valuation multiples in a low rate world,\u201d BlackRock chief investment officer of US active equity Tony DeSpirito says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Another defining factor for 2020: It was a boom for actively managed hedge funds<\/strong>, which posted their best performance since 2010, according to figures by data provider HFR cited by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/covid-19-caused-chaos-for-investors-in-2020-these-hedge-funds-earned-billions-11608892202?mod=hp_lead_pos4\">the Wall Street Journal<\/a>. Hedgies outperformed relative to the S&P 500, making an average return of 11.9% between January and November. Their performance was described as something of a comeback after years of trailing behind a portfolio of grouped stocks and bonds, the WSJ cited Goldman Sachs as saying.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2020 in review on the global fronts \u2014 rethinking portfolios, Fed stimulus, tech, and ESG: Bloomberg recapped the trends of one of the most interesting years in global investing that challenged the relationship between stocks and bonds, and the resilience of tech and ESG.
