Quarterly Fund Manager Review UK equities rose over the quarter, helped by the continuing success of the domestic vaccine rollout and the easing of lockdown restrictions. By the end of June, nearly 45 million people in the UK had received their first vaccine dose, with around 33 million being fully vaccinated. Supportive policy from the Government and positive earnings also benefited UK equities. In June, the UK Government delayed ‘freedom day’ by at least four weeks, due to an uptick in Covid-19 infections caused by the delta variant. The FTSE 100 performed well, returning 5.7%, compared with 4.7% and 5.5% for the FTSE 250 and FTSE 350, respectively. Most sectors saw positive returns, with healthcare, information technology and industrials leading the way. In May, the Bank of England (BoE) raised its 2021 GDP growth forecast to 7.25% and noted that rising inflation numbers were likely temporary. At its June meeting, the BoE kept rates on hold, despite forecasts that inflation could rise above 3% in the coming months. Economic data also pointed to a strong recovery in the UK. Manufacturing purchasing managers’ index data jumped up over the three months, reaching a record high of 65.6 in May. It fell slightly in June to 63.9 but remained in expansionary territory. However, amid the UK Government extending lockdowns until at least the middle of July, data shows that UK retail spending is struggling to recover. Retail sales fell from April to May and June’s consumer confidence print was also flat.

In this month’s recap: the Federal Reserve eases, stocks reach historic peaks, and face-to-face U.S.-China trade talks formally resume. Monthly Economic Update Presented by Craig Heien with Great Plains Financial Advisors, August 2019 THE MONTH IN BRIEF July was a positive month for stocks and a notable month for news impacting the financial markets. The S&P 500 topped the 3,000 level for the first time. The Federal Reserve cut the country’s benchmark interest rate. Consumer confidence remained strong. Trade representatives from China and the U.S. once again sat down at the negotiating table, as new data showed China’s economy lagging. In Europe, Brexit advocate Boris Johnson was elected as the new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and the European Central Bank indicated that it was open to using various options to stimulate economic activity.1 DOMESTIC ECONOMIC HEALTH On July 31, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates for the first time in more than a decade. The Federal Open Market Committee approved a quarter-point reduction to the federal funds rate by a vote of 8-2. Typically, the central bank eases borrowing costs when it senses the business cycle is slowing. As the country has gone ten years without a recession, some analysts viewed this rate cut as a preventative measure.

  • A Proposal for Regulatory Oversight of Stock Market Index Providers
    Benchmarking the World: A Proposal for Regulatory Oversight of Stock Market Index Providers ABSTRACT Wall Street has recently seen a shift from active management, which involves investors or portfolio managers buying and selling stocks, towards passive management, where investors invest in funds that seek to match the returns of an underlying index. As the popularity of index funds has grown, questions have arisen regarding the role of the index providers that produce the underlying indices. Unlike the funds themselves, these providers are largely unregulated, and have considerable discretion to determine the makeup of indices. This wide discretion allows index providers to exercise control over the global investment community since they have the ability to control investors’ exposure to different countries’ markets. The role of index providers also raises concerns about investor transparency and market manipulation in the wake of the 2012 LIBOR manipulation scandal. Recently, efforts have been made to create regulatory frameworks within Europe and on an international scale. This Note argues that the US investment industry should require index providers to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to solicit comments from the public through notice-and-comment periods when the providers add new rules or modify existing rules.

  • International Football Results Lead to Irrationality in the German Stock Market?
    International football results lead to irrationality in the German stock market? ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM ERASMUS SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS Bachelor Thesis Financial Economics Hamid Samadi 416255 Supervisor: Dr. Jing Zhao Date final thesis: 23-08-2017 Abstract This study intends to find a possible relationship between the football match outcomes of the German national team and the German stock market. This will be done by using daily data from the DAX index in the period of 1 June 1990 to 15 July 2016. During this period, all matches played by the German national team in the World Cup and the Euro Cup will be taken into investigation. The method that is applied to test for a possible relationship between the index returns and the match outcomes is an Ordinary Least Squared (OLS) statistical regression model. After conducting the research with the statistical model, no statistical significant relationship was found between the index returns and the match outcomes. This finding indicates that the German stock market is unaffected by the outcomes of the football matches in major football events. This conclusion is not in line with the findings of major studies in this field, examples are studies of Ashton, Gerard and Hudson (2003) and Edmans, Garcia and Norli (2007), in both which there was documented a significant relationship between football results and particular stock markets.
