eResearch | With the war drums beating and then receding after an assassination and a ballistic missile response coupled with a downed commercial airline, we are starting out 2020 with a cautious stance. Although recessionary fears for the United States in 2020 have receded, there are still ominous signs that a possible economic slow-down could yet occur. Markets, as usual, remain volatile, so nothing new there. The political environment in the United States remains prickly and tensions could escalate quickly as the impeachment proceedings play out. Europe has its own particular problems to face in 2020. All of this makes for a vigilant investor. But that is as it should be.
