Some important developments occurred in the third quarter of 2023. During the Verus 4th Quarter 2023 Investment Landscape webinar, we discussed:
A significant jump in longer-term interest rates during the quarter, creating difficulties for diversified portfolios as both risk assets and high-quality fixed income saw meaningful losses.
Our updated views on the probability of a U.S. recession, given a surprisingly resilient job market, positive inflation-adjusted wage gains, and moderate consumer spending.
Implications of the higher-for-longer rate environment for broader strategic asset allocations.
