Macro Driven Investment Insight
For over a decade, Entext has provided global institutional investors with distinctive asset allocation and thematic research. We seek actionable insights that challenge the market consensus and have a demonstrable track record in identifying key secular trends as well as tactical cross-asset inflection points, amid the confirmation bias that typifies much sell-side analysis.
For instance, in 2020, we warned clients from late January that the consensus was underestimating China's lockdown impact/global pandemic risks and shorted EM and US HY accordingly. We then highlighted from mid-March the prospect of a liquidity fuelled rally to new highs in equity and credit indices switching to long tactical positions in high beta equity markets. Into 2021, long energy exposure on a looming systemic capacity shortage has been a key asset allocation theme, from Chinese lithium miners and battery makers to US and European upstream oil names.
Thematic coverage of key structural trends is expressed via baskets of large cap global stocks. In 2020, these again outperformed, returning for example from 145% for alternative energy, to 60% for ecommerce automation 52% for social gaming/e-sports and 41% for autonomous vehicles.
