SUMMARY
May was jam-packed with events that could shake any investor.
We had COVID-19 decline in most of the developed world, but we saw it escalate in the emerging markets, most notably, in Brazil and India. We saw the first real economic data that shows the impact of COVID-19 on developed markets, with COVID-19 starting in late March in most developed markets and showing an impact by May. This was eye-watering economic data, including many all-time low figures.
The other thing we saw was an escalation in the US-China politics. We had the US impose more sanctions on Huawei. And we also saw the US’s very strong response to China’s proposal to implement its law into Hong Kong, which drew widespread protests. Towards the end of the month, we saw the very tragic killing of George Floyd and the protests that ensued.
In this month’s video and written commentary below we hold a lens to our investment process in the face of a market that has become mind-boggling.
