Credit Suisse recently upgraded continental European equities to overweight and forecast the group to be a good long-term bet, due to economic recovery, valuations and excess liquidity, as quoted on Reuters.
"European GDP is 5.5% below previous peak, the U.S. is back to previous peak and we now see a potential catch-up in Europe on the basis of the vaccine roll-out (possibly 70% of the adult population by early September), the fiscal boost (2% of GDP) and excess savings (4.5% of GDP)," Andrew Garthwaite said in a note to clients, as quoted on Reuters.
Apart from this, upbeat corporate earnings are other positives. Merger talks in the chip sector helped investors ignore inflation worries in the continent. Plus, the ECB has indicated that it would continue the policy easing program.
Against this backdrop, below we highlight a few Europe ETFs that are hovering around a 52-week high level and calls for optimism.
