Not only in its first move to cut, but in guiding towards the start of the rate cutting cycle. This is the first time that Europe has moved ahead of the US Federal Reserve in cutting rates since November 2011 and April 1999. So it has ignited a vis \u00e0 vis narrative and debate for global asset allocators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the implications of Europe\u2019s move to cut rates ahead of other developed markets?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While this was the first ECB rate cut since 2019, we believe it was one of the most widely expected cuts on record. So much has already been priced into markets. A move away from the synchronisation of central banks is not a cause for concern, in our view, but more of a function of differing economic situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We began to see a divergence in central bank communication since earlier this year.&nbsp; Compared to Europe, US demand-driven inflation has been stickier; growth\/employment better; and the consumer exceptionally strong. The Eurozone economy is experiencing less sticky inflation as largely driven by energy prices. This divergence creates opportunity for us as active managers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the path down to target inflation has been a bumpy one, markets are pricing a shallower cutting cycle across the globe versus what was priced at the start of 2024. Just because the ECB cut first though, it doesn\u2019t mean it will cut at a faster pace versus other central banks. However, if policy rates are perceived as too slow to fall, bond yields could rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some forecasts suggest that Europe may land at a lower neutral interest rate or r* \u2013 the rate at which monetary policy is neither stimulating nor restricting economic growth \u2013 than the US. This could be a positive for European corporates, but also influences policy headroom for the ECB. A lower long-term neutral rate in the Eurozone compared to other developed markets could:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2013 mean the ECB has less room to lower rates during economic downturns before hitting the effective lower bound. This could constrain the ECB\u2019s ability to stimulate the economy through traditional monetary policy tools during recessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2013 mean the ECB could rely more on unconventional monetary policies such as quantitative easing, negative interest rates, forward guidance, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2013 encourage corporate borrowers to invest and expand. Lower interest rates can reduce the cost of borrowing, but it can also push investors towards riskier assets as they chase higher yields and possibly inflate asset price bubbles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What should investors be watching for in Europe\u2019s outlook?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After better-than-expected wage growth and inflation figures, the ECB are buying themselves some optionality in \u201cnot pre-committing to particular rate path.\u201d Forward guidance has now been scaled back in favour of \u201cdata dependency\u201d and a \u201cmeeting by meeting\u2019\u201d approach. Upward revisions to both headline and core inflation from the March figures underline this more cautious approach. However, for Europe, there is little to suggest economic activity is going to suddenly substantially pick-up from here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This caution extends to the ECB doesn\u2019t want to undershoot their 2% target either. While the disinflation theme appears to have stalled, its revival is another risk perhaps more so than for other global markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the implications for credit investors?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Credit tends to perform best during \u2018not too hot not too cold\u2019 growth environment, where excess returns from investment grade (IG) credit are better when real GDP growth is between 1% and 3% (Figure 1). A relatively contained economic backdrop as well as continued strong demand for credit with investors far from overextended, it seems like an environment where carry \u2013 or yield \u2013 is important. Duration \u2013 the sensitivity of a bond to a change in interest rates \u2013 will also be important in an environment of falling rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Figure 1: Credit tends to perform best during \u2018not too hot not too cold\u2019 growth environment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Investment grade credit performance vs. GDP: 1948-2024<br><\/strong><em>Quarterly excess returns vs. quarterly real GDP cohorts<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"552\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampusdev.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-1100x552.jpg\" alt=\"Credit tends to perform best during \u2018not too hot not too cold\u2019 growth environment\" class=\"wp-image-194869 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-1100x552.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-700x352.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-768x386.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-1536x771.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-1_en-2048x1029.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/552;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Janus Henderson Investors, Bloomberg, ICE BofA, Ibbotson, Morgan Stanley Research as at 30 April 2024.<br>Note: <strong><strong>Past performance is not indicative of future results<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Governing Council of the ECB also confirmed the reduction of Eurosystem\u2019s holdings of securities under the pandemic emergency purchase programme (PEPP) by around EUR\u20ac7.5 billion per month over the second half of the year. According to Deutsche Bank supply forecasts factoring in the ECB\u2019s quantitative tightening until year end, investors would have to absorb almost twice the amount of non-financial senior debt compared to financial seniors.<sup>1<\/sup> This means an improving (relative) technical backdrop in senior financial supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does European credit look compared to other markets?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Higher yields \u2013 at around 4% for Euro IG credit<sup>2<\/sup> \u2013 act as a buffer against any market volatility and are an attractive entry level to the asset class. Nevertheless, we believe volatility is likely to remain muted and spread sell-offs relatively short-lived. Our focus is therefore to try to remain nimble and use weakness to buy at attractive levels. As discussed in our Q1 Credit Risk Monitor, dispersion is set to increase as rates stay higher for longer with the path gradual to the neutral interest rate, which means adding value through security selection will become more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spreads have tightened on the anticipation of easing as yields have repriced, which leaves less scope for outperformance from further tightening. However, euro credit spreads look much more attractive than US credit spreads.&nbsp; For example, EUR IG non-financials are at the 34<sup>th<\/sup> percentile versus US IG non-financials at the 1<sup>st<\/sup> percentile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Figure 2: Euro spreads look the best value<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"423\" data-src=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampusdev.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-1100x423.jpg\" alt=\"Euro spreads look the best value\" class=\"wp-image-194870 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-1100x423.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-700x269.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-300x115.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-768x296.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-1536x591.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Article-chart-Winstone_ECB-0624-2_en-2048x788.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/423;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Note: <strong>Past performance is not indicative of future results<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: Goldman Sachs, as at 31 May 2024.

First, this could flag inappropriate capital structures and their unsustainability.&nbsp;We are beginning to see this play out in lower-rated credit where the much higher cost of funding is really biting. Second, higher rates for longer encourages corporates to pay down their debt, i.e. we could see deleveraging, which should be positive for credit. This also indicates there could be higher dispersion in performance which we as active managers can exploit the market dislocations and inefficiencies to capture opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><sup>1<\/sup> Source: Deutsche Bank, Bloomberg Finance, ECB, 6<sup>th<\/sup> June 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><sup>2<\/sup> Source: Bloomberg, Janus Henderson Investors as at, 30 April 2024.
