A slowdown on the horizon?
The economic expansion that followed the global financial crisis has run for over 10 years, but Ivy does not see a downturn on the horizon. Strong underlying fundamentals and steady growth indicate potential investment opportunities now and over the longer term.
Corporate responsibility, ESG and the future of business
In August 2019, the association of CEOs of leading U.S. companies emphasized the need for corporations to benefit all stakeholders. The reactions were immediate and occasionally extreme. What does this all mean for investors?
Tech, trade war and China’s chip ambitions
