With the Federal Reserve’s recent decision to hold rates amid cooling inflation, what does this mean for markets and the overall health of the ecomony in the US and in Canada? We sit down with portfolio manager and Fidelity Canada’s Chief Investment Officer, Andrew Marchese, to get his latest insights on the market landscape plus what potential opportunities there are for institutional investors. Andrew touches on this latest divergence in the market. The Fed has held rates and the Bank of Canada is relaxing. Andrew says he’s not surprised the path that interest rate policy is going at the moment. He says it’s important to evaluate profit and cash flow streams of companies into 2025. In terms of equity allocation, Andrew says we’re having an idiosyncratic year around stock selection. He’s always been pro-US in companies to invest in and he says it’s important to think long-term horizon. He adds he’s also paying close attention to utilities and commodities sectors.
