Happy 2020 everyone!
In the past few days, there have been a number of questions on our views on the US-Iran tension and what you should do.
Well, we are paying close attention to these macroeconomic factors - not just the escalating US-Iran tension but also the US trade war and Brexit. As always, if these risk factors start to creep into the economic data and if it indicates we are moving into a recession for example, or another economic regime, we will re-optimize or change your asset allocation accordingly to ensure we are maintaining the highest risk adjusted return for each risk level. We do the monitoring so you don't have to 🙂 With that said, past experience has indicated that there should not be much (if any) of a negative effect on markets.
