2024年9月市场展望:科技股面临逆风,人工智能 (AI) 估值受关注

2024年9月市场展望:科技股面临逆风,人工智能 (AI) 估值受关注

自上期简报以来,科技股持续表现不佳,投资者开始质疑自人工智能概念兴起以来,这些公司所维持的高估值水平。毫无疑问,随着更多公司推出独立的人工智能产品,人工智能将在长期内带来生产力提升。此外,人工智能硬件的持续改进也可能加速未来的发展。

在评估当前投资环境时,我们预计人工智能相关机会的前路将不如过去一年顺利,因为投资者对这些人工智能投资及应用能否实现稳健回报的审视日益严格。

我们认为,人工智能的广泛采用将首先出现在提供模式识别与个人辅助的应用领域。这类应用虽非全新,但在过去一年已有显著进展。例如,Salesforce最近推出了Agent Force,一款可针对不同行业应用灵活定制的客户服务机器人。与旧版聊天机器人相比,Agent Force的早期用户在客户问题解决效率上提升了40%。在医疗领域,医生也日益利用人工智能辅助诊断和药物开发。从长期来看,我们在这些应用前景上具备良好的投资布局。

我们计划进一步布局的领域是人工智能相关硬件。目前,我们关注多家数据中心设备及电力管理公司。然而,这些板块整体估值偏高,且已被广泛投资。在启动重大仓位前,我们认为应采取更为审慎的策略。

人工智能格局无疑在迅速变化,我们将根据未来发展灵活调整投资仓位。

2026 September Market Outlook: Navigating Market Divergence

2026 September Market Outlook: Navigating Market Divergence

The Fed maintained a restrictive, data-dependent stance through August and subsequently raised the federal funds target range by 25 basis points to 3.75-4.00% citing persistent inflationary pressures. Updated projections point to the possibility of one further increase in 2026. Elevated long-dated US Treasury yields continue to present a valuation risk particularly for growth, technology and AI-related companies, whose expected cash flows lie further in the future. At the same time, continued corporate earnings delivery and investments in strategic technologies along the tech supply chain have so far helped the global economy absorb tighter financial conditions. Strong earnings guidance from major global technology companies supports the view that investment in data centres, advanced chips and supporting infrastructure remains resilient. Within Asia, performance has diverged meaningfully across countries. Singapore remains the region’s defensible market, with strong banking profitability and wealth management inflows attracting investor interest amid global uncertainty. Taiwan and South Korea’s technology sector continues to be major beneficiaries of surging AI-related demand. On the other hand, confidence towards China’s and Indonesia’s growth outlook remains fragile. China’s slow economic momentum is a result of a weak property market and slow domestic consumption, while Indonesia’s commodity price normalisation and concerns over capital outflows weigh on sentiment. Against this backdrop, maintaining well-diversified exposure across geographies and themes remains important. We continue to be highly selective in stock selection, adhering to a disciplined, bottom-up approach to portfolio construction that prioritises quality and resilience to macroeconomic uncertainty.

2026 August Market Outlook: Navigating Volatility

2026 August Market Outlook: Navigating Volatility

Concerns around the durability of AI-related capital expenditure and intensifying competition triggered a sharp sector sell-off after a mid-July peak. Investor sentiment turned more discerning on the back of earnings season, and questions arose regarding how sustainable the AI investment pace is without eating into cash generation. Capital rotated out of semiconductors and into energy, financials and value stocks, shifting to markets and names seen as less exposed to a single-theme correction. Layered on top was renewed Middle East escalation and its effect on rates expectations. Brent crude spiked back above $100/barrel intermittently after the US reinstated a naval blockade on Iran and announced plans to impose a levy on cargo transiting Hormuz, although the levy was never implemented. This revived inflation concerns and caused markets to price a reduced likelihood of further Fed easing. Elevated US bond yields further weighed on stocks. Looking ahead, renewed conflict or another AI-related pullback could swiftly unwind recent sentiment gains and force a repricing of both rates and earnings expectations. Against this backdrop, we continue to favour a diversified, bottom-up approach that balances exposure to structural AI and technology themes with quality, less crowded names to weather through volatility.

2026 July Market Outlook: Navigating Crosscurrents

2026 July Market Outlook: Navigating Crosscurrents

Central banks broadly maintained a data-dependent stance through the period and remained watchful even as global energy-driven inflation eased. The Federal Reserve reaffirmed its commitment to price stability even as growth prospects softened, while the European Central Bank similarly balanced improving headline inflation against still-elevated services prices. Closer to home, the Monetary Authority of Singapore raised its 2026 core inflation forecast on concerns that persistent price pressures could dampen household spending. The Hormuz disruption has driven inflation fears that outweigh traditional safe-haven demand. Gold and silver have moved in an unusual, counterintuitive pattern, falling rather than rallying as fighting escalated. In equities, investor sentiment shifted markedly as the AI-led rally that dominated the first half of the year gave way to a bout of volatility, prompting some rotation into value and cyclicals. Asian equities showed sharp dispersion rather than uniform resilience. In July 2026, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng emerged as the standout performer on continued strength in Chinese technology and AI names, while South Korea’s Kospi and Japan’s Nikkei slipped from June’s rebound as the memory-chip optimism and AI trade cooled. Looking ahead, markets remain caught between two competing narratives, a genuine easing of geopolitical and energy-driven inflation pressure, against the risk of renewed hostilities or a resurgence in AI-related volatility, which could quickly reverse recent gains in sentiment and reprice rate expectations. Against this backdrop, we continue to favour a diversified, bottom-up approach that balances exposure to structural AI and technology themes with quality, less crowded names to weather through volatility.
