Financial expert: Market forecast 2024 - Low volatility expected despite geopolitical unrest. Probability: 25%
Finanzexperte Edgar Walk von Metzler Asset Management glaubt trotz rasanter Leitzinserhöhungen und geopolitischer Spannungen nicht an eine dramatische Zunahme der Volatilität an den Aktienmärkten im Jahr 2024.

How www.procontra-online.de reports, Edgar Walk, chief economist at Metzler Asset Management, does not see a high probability of extreme volatility on the stock markets in 2024 despite the current unrest on the markets as well as rapid increases in key interest rates and geopolitical tensions worldwide. His assessment is based on the fact that the year 2023 did not lead to dramatic volatility despite similar influencing factors.
Analysis and possible impacts
Based on Walk's assessment and current developments, it is likely that stock markets could remain relatively stable in 2024 despite rapid interest rate hikes and geopolitical tensions. This could potentially reassure investors and provide some stability.
However, Walk points out that incalculable geopolitical risks, such as a Chinese attack on Taiwan or the conflict in the Middle East, could still hit stock markets hard. Such events could result in sudden price declines and increased volatility, which could unsettle investors and lead to selling pressure.
Conclusion
Although Walk sees a low probability of extreme stock market volatility in 2024, uncertainty remains due to geopolitical risks. Investors should therefore continue to monitor developments in geopolitical conflicts and, if necessary, hedge their portfolios accordingly.
