As the economies emerge from one of the most severe recessions in history, the biggest surprise in 2009 was the swiftness of the recoveryin the US and Euro-zone. Having started 2009 on an extremely low point, the global economy responded to large amounts of government stimuli. The sharp rise in risk willingness was remarkable given the severity of the downturn and instead of sideways markets, produced an almost straight line recovery for equities in Asia.
Andrew Robinson, Market Analyst at Saxo Capital Markets states, "In the long term, Asia will lead the recovery out of this crisis for several reasons. There is more savings per capita than most western economies, the banking and financial institutions are in better shape and Asian governments will continue to generate jobs through infrastructure projects."
"One additional important factor is that there isn't a major government change scheduled to take place in key Asia markets this year that would impede stimulus plans," says Robinson. "With markets now pricing in strong growth in every corner of the world, the stage is set for the economies to deliver."
The 2010 outlook also highlights the danger of prolonging the crisis into 2010 as efforts to stimulate the economy stands in the way of change towards long-term sustainability.
