Nordic Strategy: Outlook 2020

We expect 2020 to be another year of disappointing EPS growth, as we believe margin pressure is more structural than transitory. Economic growth should be sufficiently resilient to avoid a recession but not enough to generate more than modest equity-market returns, given that markets are already pricing in a solid rebound in earnings. A mature cycle, valuations at a premium, and downside risk to estimates present an asymmetric risk profile, so we recommend a moderate underweight for equities.
