Hola Bizkaitarra,
Yo tampoco tengo RV USA por si las moscas, y no veo que si cae Wall Street puedan mantenerse Europa y Japón, pese a todas las recomendaciones que leemos sobre ambos... con lo que los consejos de las gestoras no me acaban de cuadrar.
Legg Mason se esfuerza más que otras, y da una explicación sobre los pobres rendimientos de las bolsas:
Emerging markets sovereign wealth funds have become
significant investors in the U.S. and other equity markets over
the last several years, and the drag of stubbornly low crude oil
prices has led to forced selling by such funds in Saudi Arabia
and Kuwait to meet domestic budget requirements. We believe
this unwind has been a source of heightened market volatility
that could subsist should commodity prices fail to find a floor.
Subraya estos riesgos:
-The key risk to watch, for us, is if quantitative easing in Europe and Japan proves impotent, and the U.S. consumer fails to ride to the rescue.
-Unfortunately, the risk of deflation, albeit low, has not disappeared. The long-term headwinds to growth remain with us and will be with us for quite some time. First, there are demographic headwinds. Population growth continues to slow in developed markets and the percent of the population
able to work is declining. This means that the population of workers that drive economic growth is shrinking.
-The second headwind, at least in the U.S., is slowing productivity growth. No one really knows what drives productivity growth but historically, advancements in technology may have played a role. The last big burst of innovation was the broad adoption of the Internet (remember the Pets.com sockpuppet). In recent history, productivity growth has slowed, and there is no obvious great leap forward in technology on the horizon.
-Sobre RV Japón:
Unlike many of the failed efforts in the past to revitalize the Japanese economy, “Abenomics” just may work.
The implication for the Japanese equity market is a wholesale re-rating of equity valuations to the upside.
One component of Abenomics addresses an entrenched corporate practice of focusing on debt minimization rather than maximizing profit; as a result, Japanese corporations have generated lower return on equity than corporations in other developed markets. For example, Japanese companies consistently delivered returns on equity (ROE) in the 10% range while American companies generated ROEs closer to 17%.
As part of Abenomics, exchange-listed Japanese companies must either comply with or explain their decision to not follow the principles listed in the corporate governance code, a code that discourages cross-holdings of Japanese companies and requires listed firms to appoint no less than two independent outside directors. Those outside directors have become very real advocates for the shareholders.
Looking at the return on equity (ROE) for the TOPIX, a market-based proxy of “Japan, Inc.”, it’s clear that things are indeed improving. Just imagine what Japanese equities would look like if the current P/E of 13.7 for the TOPIX was re-rated to the S&P 500 P/E of 16.6 — an increase of over 21 percent.
