In a new note produced with colleague Carolin Raab, Uleer says the risks that have been weighing on equity markets in the third quarter are turning into opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the economic environment is improving, with eurozone purchasing manager surveys, which had declined for five months in a row, recently taking a turn for the better. Also, softer China growth is already factored in, notes Uleer, and even a mild U.S. recession \u201cis widely anticipated by markets and would most likely have a limited impact on markets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Monetary policy trajectory may also now be more supportive, says Uleer: \u201cAfter the recent move in implied rates (higher rates, later cuts), we now expect markets to be positively surprised by central banks next year.\u201d On average, German bund yields fell by more than 100 basis points 12 months after the last rate hike and in 9 out of 10 cases, Uleer notes.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, expectations of earnings are \u201csufficiently negative\u201d. After heavy downward revisions, forecasts now seem more realistic for this year and, with consensus growth of just 3%, potentially too negative for 2024. Uleer sees earnings growth next year of 5%.<\/p>\n<p>Given all this, Deutsche expects stock markets to recover in the fourth quarter and has a 2024 forecast for the Stoxx 600 of 510, sees the Euro Stoxx 50<br \/>\n        XX:SX5E<br \/>\n       at 4,850 and the DAX index<br \/>\n        DX:DAX<br \/>\n       at 18,000.<\/p>\n<p>Uleer was wary of equities in July and recommended hedging by buying 3-month at-the-money put options on the Euro Stoxx 50 \u2014 a position that would have tripled in value. Now Uleer says traders should close that position, which expires next week, and go overweight into stocks<\/p>\n<div data-layout=\"inline\n                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\" class=\"\n          media-object\n          type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            inline\n  article__inset\n          article__inset--type-InsetMediaIllustration\n            article__inset--inline\n  \"><\/p>\n<p>          <!-- eventually when we know what this card will be we can change it and leave this one --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n        media-object-image\n        enlarge-image\n        img-inline\n        article__inset__image\n      \" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><\/p>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p>Overall, Uleer says Deutsche prefers equities over fixed income: \u201cFrom a multi asset perspective, we like to take risk via an overweight in equities but prefer to buy long duration government bonds with high ratings over credit.
