New Normal … Morphing
PIMCO’s investment professionals gatherd for three days to discuss the three-to-five year outlook for the global economy and markets. Needless to say the role and actions of central banks across the globe was a recurring theme over the “Secular Forum.” Specifically, that in the process of buying time for economies to heal, they have inserted a disconnect between market prices and underlying economic and financial fundamentals.

The underlying questions is how and when would improved funadmentals validate artificial prices in a globally consistent and sustainable fashion.
