JPMorgan: Investment Outlook for 2020

December 11, 2019

The investment outlook for 2020

Investment strategies for a late-cycle environment

 

IN BRIEF

  • The U.S. economy has returned to slower growth, but should avoid recession in 2020.
  • Overseas economies should see modest improvement as trade tensions ease.
  • The Fed may leave rates unchanged in 2020, but other central banks are still in easing mode.
  • Modest U.S. equity gains should be built on somewhat higher earnings rather than multiple expansion.
  • International equities should outperform in the long run, but will be challenged for as long as trade tensions persist.
  • Market volatility could be higher in an election year. Investors will need to be well diversified and should avoid letting how they feel about politics govern how they think about investing.

RISK: There are risks involved with investing, including loss of principal. Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to risks as well. Diversification may not protect against market risk. There is no assurance the goals of the strategies discussed will be met. International investments may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from difference in generally accepted accounting in principles or from economic or political instability in other nations. Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume. Bonds and bond funds will decrease in value as interest rates rise. These and other risks are described more fully in the fund’s prospectus. CREDIT RISK: The issuer of a fixed income security may not be able to make interest and principal payments when due. The lower the credit rating of a security, the greater the risk of default on its obligation.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund carefully before investing. This and other information is contained in the Fund’s prospectus and summary prospectus, which may be obtained online or by calling 1-888-507-2798.

Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
