Andy and Chris discuss their views on the market and the economy as we head into 2023. They believe that the downturn in 2022 created a great opportunity to buy high-quality businesses at a lower price, due to moderating inflation and slowing economic growth in the US. In their opinion, the probability of interest rates continually increasing throughout 2023, is very, very low- which offers a more favorable environment for equities. In the current market conditions some businesses are facing headwinds from the tough macro environment. However, the expectations priced into stocks are for a much greater decline, which could result in positive surprises and an increase in stock prices. They strongly believe that buying stocks when they are undervalued is the best way to reduce risk and see 2023 as a great entry point for investments that will reap benefits in the long-term.
They also touch upon Montaka's current portfolio exposures and deep dive into one of our holdings- S&P Global, which they believe will thrive in this environment.
