What to expect in 2022 for financial investments?
To understand how to invest in 2022, it is necessary to carefully analyze the macroeconomic context , starting with the strategies adopted by central banks. In Europe, the ECB has decided to keep rates at zero but will stop the PEPP in March 2022 , suspending the extraordinary plan for the purchase of sovereign bonds but without raising interest rates. According to the Eurotower, in 2022 the Eurozone economy should slow down growth compared to 2021, and then accelerate again in 2023, while inflation should increase in 2022 and fall to 1.8% the following year.
The Fed, on the other hand, has decided to follow a different strategy, considering the high rise in inflation in the United States and the different macroeconomic situation in the United States. The Federal Reserve has announced that in 2022 it will decrease the level of QE by reducing the purchase of securities on the market, moreover it no longer considers inflation as transitory and could intervene in 2022 with three hikes in interest rates . On the other hand, tapering has already started in November 2021, putting an end to the long period of equity support by the US Central Bank.
These interventions could cause less sustained growth in equities in 2022 , with greater opportunities in value stocks and green sectors, favored by public investments in environmental sustainability and the energy transition. Fintech and biotech stocks should also be carefully monitored, very dynamic sectors in which there will be no shortage of investment opportunities. Analysts predict a possible increase in volatility also in Forex , a condition that could favor currency trading, while cryptocurrencies will be called to the test of maturity in 2022 to demonstrate their full potential after two years of record growth.
