Brokerage firm Credit Suisse has predicted that recession is expected in the Eurozone and United Kingdom in the start of the year, but as the monetary policy and inflation has peaked out, it is expected to slow down by the end of 2023.
A fall in inflation will give higher returns on fixed income assets, i.e.- government bonds, municipal bonds, corporate bonds, and asset-backed securities such as mortgage-backed bonds.
The report further states that Equity performance will remain sluggish and earnings will bring support.
According to Credit Suisse, the demand for cyclical commodities may see a slowdown. These are commodities whose price goes up and down by large amounts following the level of activity in the economy as a whole.
