So to no surprise, commodities investments have become top of mind to many investors as it’s considered a traditional inflation hedge. But does that thinking apply to all inflationary environments? And what are the ESG implications behind commodities investing today?

    2022-03-07T16:25:00Z By Amundi

    At the core of the crisis, Russian assets have become almost un-investible, with dramatic price action as the market attempts to grapple with uncertainty. European equities have suffered, anticipating the negative consequences of the war on corporate earnings, while also commodities trended higher with double digit rise across many commodities.

    The Inflationary Shock of the Russia-Ukraine Crisis

    2022-03-04T17:31:00Z By Franklin Templeton

    Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has already caused a tragic human toll. It also brings yet another disruptive shock to a global economy already coping with persistent supply chain disruptions and fast-rising inflation. The clearest and most immediate economic impact of the conflict will be stronger and more durable inflationary pressures, driven by a negative supply shock to energy and some agricultural commodities—as detailed in the remainder of this note.

The intensification and spread of the conflict is deeply troubling and is having a devastating impact on those people caught in the crisis.

    Shifts & Narratives #14 - Russia conflict marks a further step in the road back to the ‘70s

    2022-03-02T11:22:00Z By Amundi

    In recent history, geopolitical crises have tended to be short-lived and after an initial sell-off they provide buying opportunities for investors. It’s tempting to see a similar pattern in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which would explain why markets have been on a roller-coaster, with a fast recovery expected for any perceived positive development, after the initial negative shock when Russia launched its unexpected large scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February.

    2022-02-28T10:43:00Z By Franklin Templeton

    Russia has invaded Ukraine. Our Franklin Templeton Investment Solutions team reflects on the human tragedy that is occurring as they also parse the data to understand the resulting economic and market implications.
