With improving global growth, we’re maintaining our risk asset exposure in June, favoring US value, US small-cap, and emerging market stocks. Optimize your portfolios with our outlook and allocation guidance.
Risk assets continue to reflect optimism and confidence towards a favorable macro environment with muted volatility in the near term. Based on our framework, we expect global growth to remain below its long-term trend, but there’s potential for a more balanced contribution from other parts of the world. While the US has led the global recovery since late 2022, recent economic data point to a broadening of growth momentum to other developed markets and emerging markets, except for China. For our longer-term perspectives, read our 2024 Midyear Investment Outlook.
Leading economic indicators continue to improve at a rapid clip in the eurozone, UK, and Japan, led by rising consumer confidence and manufacturing business surveys. Improving orders and demand expectations, particularly in export-oriented industries, are lifting the prospect for a cyclical rebound in Europe after a prolonged period of anemic growth. Similarly, global earnings revisions have started to reflect improving economic prospects outside the US, with a modest but encouraging upturn across developed markets and emerging markets, apart from China. US earnings prospects continue to lead. The relative performance between major equity markets has started discounting the potential for this rotation. After the pronounced leadership of US equities in January, developed ex-US and emerging market equities have performed remarkably in line with US equities, despite the extraordinary outperformance of mega-cap US technology names.
A challenge for tactical investors is preparing for the expected and anticipating the unexpected. The tactical asset allocation (TAA) framework from the Invesco Solutions team is designed to enhance a long-term strategic asset allocation (SAA) by making portfolio tilts based on near-term market views.
In June, we’re maintaining our exposure to risk assets, including US value and small-cap and emerging market stocks. The tactical, dynamic factor rotation shown below is also utilized in the Invesco Russell 1000® Dynamic Multifactor ETF (OMFL).
The Invesco Solutions team develops portfolios for client-oriented outcomes over multiple time horizons.

Bitcoin has historically exhibited high price volatility relative to more traditional asset classes, which may be due to speculation regarding potential future appreciation in value. The value of the Trust’s investments in bitcoin could decline rapidly, including to zero.
The further development and acceptance of the Bitcoin network, which is part of a new and rapidly changing industry, is subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate. The slowing, stopping or reversing of the development or acceptance of the network may adversely affect the price of bitcoin and therefore an investment in the Shares.
Currently, there is relatively limited use of bitcoin in the retail and commercial marketplace in comparison to relatively extensive use as a store of value, contributing to price volatility that could adversely affect an investment in the Shares.
Regulatory changes or actions may alter the nature of an investment in bitcoin or restrict the use of bitcoin or the operations of the Bitcoin network or venues on which bitcoin trades. For example, it may become difficult or illegal to acquire, hold, sell or use bitcoin in one or more countries, which could adversely impact the price of bitcoin.
