Key Themes This Week Major Markets Last Week The Week Ahead Equity markets were broadly flat last week. Trade, the Fed and attacks on two oil tankers in the middle east dominated the headlines. Economic data remained mixed with weaker inflation numbers from the US and Europe and Value Change % Move underwhelming industrial production data in both Europe and China. Dow 26090 105.67 0.41%

Our cautious view on risk assets remains at present as numerous headwinds S&P 2887 13.64 0.47% build. Broadly, global economic data continues to deteriorate. Global Nasdaq 7797 54.56 0.70% manufacturing PMI data for May fell to 49.8 (implying contraction) for the first time since 2012. Earnings expectations continue to fall. The first two quarters are both set to see negative earnings growth and projections for the second MSCI UK 16065 -57.08 -0.35% half of the year are looking optimistic. Despite this, valuations remain elevated with the S&P 500 12m forward P/E of c.17x. US-Sino trade relations appear DAX 12092 46.18 0.38% to be getting worse as opposed to better. The effect of these tariffs on global ISEQ 6149 -51.83 -0.84% economic data and corporate profits is becoming more evident. The meeting between Trump and Xi, should it go ahead, at the G20 on the 28th of June will be pivotal. Nikkei 21124 -10.42 -0.05%

These headwinds have seen a flight to safe haven assets. The US ten year H.Seng 27256 -323.10 -1.17% yield has dropped to 2.10% and the 10 year German bund yield has fallen to its lowest level on record at –27bps. Gold has gained and is now closing in on STOXX600 379 0.67 0.18% key point of resistance at $1358. It will be a significant signal if it breaks above and holds this level. Brent Oil 61.71 -0.58 -0.93% It is an important week for financial markets with the Federal Reserve, the Bank of England and the Bank of Japan all deciding on interest rate policy. Crude Oil 52.24 -1.02 -1.92% There is a slew of economic data which will be watched keenly. Gold 1336 7.67 0.58%

The Federal Open Market Committee meeting on Wednesday is shaping up to be the one of the key events this year. The current downward trend in economic data and the escalating trade war has led the market to do a Silver 14.8227 0.12 0.81% complete U-turn on its monetary policy expectations since December. Copper 263.8 -2.40 -0.90% Investors are now pricing in between two and three interest rate cuts this year from the Fed. The probability of an interest rate cut at this week meeting has CRB Index 412.08 2.47 0.60% risen to 25% after the Fed Chairman, Jerome Powell, said the central bank will respond “as appropriate” to the risk from a global trade war and other developments. However, given the position of equity markets at present and Euro/USD 1.1217 -0.01 -0.84% the signal a cut would provide to the market, we do not expect a cut on Wednesday. Should it fail to cut as we expect, the message from Powell will Euro/GBP 0.8914 0.00 -0.03% be crucial. With the market convincing itself we are at the beginning of easing GBP/USD 1.2584 -0.01 -0.80% cycle, the meeting possesses a risk to both equity and fixed income markets. In our opinion, a cut from the Fed over the summer period will be a Value Change signal that the outlook for the US economy is poorer than we had anticipated. We do not expect any changes from the BoJ or the BoE this week. German 10 Year -0.252 -0.03

On the data front in the US notable publications include, flash Markit PMI’s, UK 10 Year 0.844 0.01 housing starts, home sales and industrial manufacturing data. In Europe, flash US 10 Year 2.1011 -0.05 PMI’s for June, German economic sentiment, construction and trade data will be important. PMI data from Japan on Friday will indicate the direction of global trade. The aforementioned PMI data, particularly manufacturing, Irish 10 Year 0.299 -0.03 will drive sentiment later this week. US manufacturing PMI is expected to come in inline with last month at 50.5. Should it surprise to the downside and Spain 10 Year 0.497 -0.11 come in sub 50, fears will grow of an impending recession. This would be exacerbated by more hawkish than expected Fed on Wednesday. European Italy 10 Year 2.303 -0.06 manufacturing PMI is expected to show another month of contraction with expectations of reading of 47.7. Germany continues to lead this decline as its export heavy economy suffers from trade wars and the economic downtrend. BoE 0.75 0.00

This represents a 6% discount to its 5 year average. This is despite double digit EPS growth projections for the medium term. • Short term we see c.8 - 10% upside from the current level. These lower levels are also an opportunity for longer term investing. However, Brexit risk must be taken into consideration. • The risk of a no-deal hard Brexit has increased. The direction will be driven by the newly elected Tory head. As a result there will be occasions to lock in profits over the coming months. • Brexit is a significant risk for ICG as its core business is based on transporting goods and passengers across the Irish sea.

Healthcare Closing Price: €75.98

• We maintain our preference for a defensive asset allocation at present. • Economic data has shown a consistent deterioration over the past number of months. Last month global manufacturing PMI fell to its lowest level since 2012. It is now in contractionary territory (sub 50) at 49.8. • A trade deal between the US and China looks a long way away.

IRES REIT Closing Price: €1.62 • I-RES is Ireland’s largest private landlord with a portfolio of 3,568 units spread mainly across Dublin. They have a target of 5,000 units in the medium term. • Their portfolio of residential units is valued on their balance sheet at c.€330k per unit and rented for €1,600 per unit per month on average. We think both these numbers are a conservative reflection of the market at present and look attractive relative to recent PRS scheme transactions. The average two bed apartment in Sandyford sells for c. €350k and we think this is a fair comparison. • Post the acquisition of the Marathon Asset Management portfolio, consensus will likely to raise their 2019, 2020 and 2021 revenue by 15%, 27% and 30% respectively. Allowing for the increased gearing for the Marathon acquisition, I-RES EPS should increase • In 2018, IRES paid out €24m as a dividend to shareholders relative to €41m in rent roll.

• Market trends continue to favour more defensive stocks over economically sensitive stocks such as Apple. • Trade negotiations between the US and China, not only weigh on global demand, but recent reports have indicated that Apple’s manufacturing partner has the capacity to move manufacturing out of China.
