Weekly Market Outlook February 21, 2016

Weekly Market Outlook:
Pfäffikon SZ, Switzerland – The sharp rise in industrial production makes it unlikely that the U.S. will land in a recession this year. However, the recovery of oil prices and the support of the Chinese renminbi also contributed to the improvement in sentiment. For now, investors are slowly getting confirmation of what we had already been thinking for some time. Additionally, ‘The City’ is satisfied with the agreement that Prime Minister David Cameron made with the rest of the EU this weekend; a Brexit seems averted.

The coming week is all about the latest company figures, the German Ifo figure, and on Friday, we will have access to the U.S. Q4 GDP report.
