Inflation was again the dominant theme and the latest figures showed that inflation remains stubbornly high after all. As a result, government bond yields went up along with it. This raises expectations that central banks will want to keep policy interest rates at higher levels for a long(er) time to curb inflation. The euro quoted 1.06 against the U.S. dollar, losing some ground from last month.    <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><strong>Shares<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stock market outcomes were mixed and not very large in February. The MSCI All Countries World Index fell 0.5% (measured in euros) in February, with emerging markets (-4.2%) doing significantly less than developed markets (-0.1%). Within the latter group, it was Europe that performed best (+1.8%). North America was narrowly negative (-0.2%) and Japan yielded slightly more (-1.5%). Within emerging markets, it was Asia (-4.6%) and Latin America (-3.9%) in particular that contributed to the negative returns.    <\/p>\n<p>In terms of style, things were fairly close last month, with &#8220;growth&#8221; (-0.2%) doing slightly better than &#8220;value&#8221; (-0.9%). At the sector level, it was IT (+2.0%) and manufacturing (+1.3%) that led the way, and it was the materials and real estate sectors that were on the downside (both -3.5%). <\/p>\n<p><strong>Bonds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In February, interest rates rose across breadth and different maturities. For example, German 10-year interest rates rose 0.37% to 2.65%, and in the U.S. it was slightly more (+0.42% to 3.92%). Risk premiums hardly changed in February. The premium for less risky corporate bonds was slightly lower (-0.04% to 1.47%), as was the premium for more risky corporate bonds (-0.06% to 4.54%). For emerging market government bonds, there was a slight increase (+0.03% to 4.47)%.    <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unfortunately, after a good start in January, returns for all cohorts were negative in February.
