2024 Revealed : Ten convictions for a blinding future

As December was bringing to an end another challenging year on financial markets, our CIO Nicolas Forest and Candriam investment experts observed the tradition and took some time to reflect on the past events and future potential opportunities.

  • How to make the most of high rates in a Fixed income portfolio?
  • Equities: What about corporate margins and profits?
  • Should we worry about Public deficits in the Eurozone?
  • Where do we stand on financing the Energy transition?
  • Are Real estate markets up for a warmer season?
  • Emerging markets: discover the new rising stars!
  • Is the Healthcare sector still a defensive play?
  • US election year: what economic consequences in case of a Biden-Trump duel?
  • Asset allocation: what portfolio to enter 2024?
