Passive fund managers would actually quite like a recession: <\/strong>A growing number of ETF providers believe that a recession could scare investors into pulling bns of USD from mutual funds and pile into low-cost ETFs, Bloomberg reports<\/a>. It sounds strange, given that ETFs would almost certainly take a hit in the event of a market correction. But the theory is that a recession would over the long-term cause investors to dump their active funds in favor of their cheaper cousins. This is what happened in 2007-2008, which Rich Powers, head of ETF product management at Vanguard, argues was \u201cone of the great catalysts\u201d for the growth of the now-USD 4.5 tn industry.<\/p>\n

(Remember: As we\u2019ve noted before, nobody\u2019s entirely sure will happen in a massive selloff, <\/strong>and ETFs are part of the problem<\/strong>. JPMorgan estimated in late 2018 that as much as USD 7.4 tn in assets \u201ccould be subject to forced selling by passive funds during the next downturn.\u201d<\/a> Deutsche Bank said at the same time that it saw an algo-led selloff as the biggest risk of 2019<\/a>. As it is, the Wall Street Journal<\/a> estimates that roughly 85% of all trading is on autopilot \u2014 controlled by machines, models or passive investing approaches.)<\/p>\n

The success of passive fund management is \u201cbuilt on a fallacy\u201d that they guard against <\/strong>human error,<\/strong> which is simply not the case, Jonathan Guthrie writes for the Financial Times<\/a>. Funds tracking bonds and stocks don\u2019t actually eliminate human errors because they essentially track the bonds and stocks selected by \u2014 you guessed it \u2014 humans. Passive fund management largely owes its success to the relatively minuscule fees they charge, which have put them on course to control over 25% of S&P 500 equity within the next eight years.<\/p>\n

Investors look for inflation hedges as Powell eyes higher inflation:<\/strong> Money managers are channeling funds into safer Treasury inflation-protected securities (Tips), commodity-linked funds and gold to hedge against Federal Reserve chair Jay Powell\u2019s push for higher inflation, the FT reports.<\/a><\/p>\n

China will start talks with American companies to increase its imports of US-made goods<\/strong> after the two countries struck a \u201cphase one\u201d agreement that will see Beijing commit to buying USD 200 bn-worth of US goods over the coming two years, reports Reuters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Feeling optimistic about how the US-China detente will improve 2020 investment<\/strong> prospects? Here\u2019s a dose of scepticism to balance that out:<\/strong> The preliminary agreement between Washington and Beijing has pushed the global stock market to new records, but financial markets may be getting ahead of themselves, argues the Financial Times\u2019 Michael Mackenzie<\/a>. Optimistic investors, Mackenzie argues, aren\u2019t giving enough consideration to future snags, including the fact that the phase one agreement won\u2019t remove all of the US\u2019 tariffs on China for another couple of years. Meanwhile, the RMB rally against the USD may be great news for those of us in emerging markets, but is more on the bad side for S&P 500 companies.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s kicking off again in Beirut:<\/strong> More than 100 people have been injured during clashes in Beirut as security forces fired tear gas, water cannon and rubber bullets at hundreds of anti-government protesters outside parliament, AP reports<\/a>. Protests against government corruption and economic mismanagement began last October and led to the resignation of Prime Minister Saad Hariri and his cabinet at the beginning of November. Violence broke out again last week amid building frustration with politicians\u2019 inability to form a new government and tackle the country\u2019s economic crisis, the AP said.<\/p>\n
