2020 midyear outlook - 20/20 vision: a clearer path for growth
Our 2020 market and investment theme, “20/20 vision: a clearer path for growth,” was thrown for a loop in March.

In the months ahead, we expect market volatility to remain elevated and portfolio construction to be more challenging, but Nuveen’s Global Investment Committee still sees value across asset classes. We remain committed to offering investors of all types and outcomes goals and ideas for how to navigate today’s — and tomorrow’s — markets.
