  • S&P Capital IQ - Outlook for Europe Report

    Date 30/09/2013

    Highlights from the latest ‘European Investment Policy Committee’ note from S&P Capital IQ Equity Research:

    • 2014 and the rest of 2013 will likely be defined by the strength of an earnings rebound. We anticipate that many cyclical subsectors will lead this rebound via margin recovery, higher economic activity driving both consumer and industrial demand and, for Continental Europe, forex support. Many leading indicators have improved materially since April, with some investors nervous that the cyclical outperformance over defensive peers is over. The ‘early cyclical’ phase is indeed likely over, and also included an element of catch-up following the weak Q1 outturn, but leading indicators are a better buy signal than sell. In our view we are about to enter a new, normalised cycle where economic momentum does become more lumpy but where reactions should be more contained.
