Key Comments:

“Definitely we see high ratings”.

“The stock markets could be anticipating the launch of vaccines and the reopening of economies. We could be entering the roaring twenties, we don’t know. “

Plus, interest rates are low, which is important for stock valuations and leads to higher stock prices. “

“If this turns into a race between individuals and professional investors, it is clear who will suffer in the end: the little investor“.

“2021 will probably have two faces. Vaccines provide the prospect of a way out of this crisis and a much better second half of the year“.
