Frankfurt The markets have recently lost significant momentum. But JP Morgan, the giant among US banks, is optimistic: “We are sticking to a pro-risk allocation,” according to a study on the distribution of assets across different asset classes.

The inflation will continue. However, the fear of stagflation, i.e. the combination of rising prices and weak growth, is exaggerated.

US equity investors are also in a better mood in October than in the previous month. This is the result of the IHS Markit Investment Manager Index, which is based on a monthly analysis of data from around 100 institutional investors. The willingness to take risks has increased, reports IHS.
