Latest from Lyxor: Are changes afoot?

May 21, 2018--This week, dollar strength and the prospects for higher US rates weighed on US and emerging markets as well as metals. They did however provide some support to eurozone and Japanese equities. Investors now seem less concerned over the trajectory of China's economy and its possible trade war with the US.

They now expect to see a slight bounce in global growth in Q2, mainly driven by developed markets (and particularly the US) rather than emerging economies. They see oil prices, US inflation, and economic data keeping the Fed to its hiking path but other central banks to stay their hand as their economies falter.

FCA Automated investment services-our expectations

May 21, 2018--Our reviews
The first review looked at 7 firms offering automated online discretionary investment management (ODIM).

This is where the client has given the firm responsibility to invest on the client's behalf, within parameters agreed with the client, on an ongoing basis. At the time these firms represented over half of the firms in this particular market.

The second review looked at 3 firms providing retail investment advice exclusively through automated channels (auto advice), where customers do not interact with human financial advisers. The advice is given on a one-off basis (when the customer first engages with the firm). At the time of the review, these firms were the early entrants to this developing market. We plan to review further firms in this market later in this financial year.

ETF Money Monitor-May 2018-ETFs flows pause for breath

May 18, 2018--European ETF Market flows slowed again in April. Net New Assets (NNA) fell to €660m from the €1.3bn we saw in March. In a reversal from March, fixed income ETFs attracted most of the inflows (€1.4bn) while equity ETFs recorded their first negative month since May 2016 (-€1.5bn).

Commodities enjoyed a strong month (€677m) as the reflation trade took hold but smart beta remained out of favor at -€587m.

Equity ETFs suffered significant outflows in April, but US ETFs still enjoyed positive, albeit slower, inflows. Japan and Global markets both suffered outflows but Eurozone equity ETFs bore the brunt of the sell-off at -€2.9bn.
