Summary
- Dispersion of returns highlights importance of identifying attractive valuations
- Correlations between international markets and U.S. lower than 3-5 year averages
- Dina Ting, Franklin Templeton exec, shares insights on market dynamics
According to Dina Ting, senior vice president and head of global index portfolio management at Franklin Templeton, the current dispersion of returns across global markets highlights the importance of identifying where valuations remain attractive. In an interview on "The Close" with Romaine Bostick and Katie Greifeld, Ting explains that the correlations between international markets and the U.S. are lower this year than the three- or five-year averages.
This suggests a divergence in market trends, with some regions and sectors performing differently than others. Ting's insights suggest that investors need to be more selective in their approach, focusing on areas where valuations appear compelling despite the overall market dispersion.
The comments from the Franklin Templeton executive provide a nuanced perspective on the current state of global markets, underscoring the need for active management and a keen eye for identifying pockets of opportunity amidst the shifting landscape.
