VGK: Europe Facing Another Energy Crisis And The Prospect Of A Two-Front Economic War
The VGK ETF, which broadly covers the EU economy and its domestic multinational companies, is a good candidate to be the worst-performing regional ETF next year. Europe is facing another potential energy crisis, based on recent natural gas storage level data, as well as other issues, such as negative supply security developments. The resulting economic crisis can be made much worse, by rising economic frictions with its two main trade and business partners, namely China & the US.

VGK ETF: Tariffs Or Not, Europe Is A Risk Too High To Handle
Trump's victory and potential tariffs are causing VGK to fall, despite rising foreign stock markets, due to fears of trade disruptions. VGK's exposure to industrial and consumer discretionary sectors makes it vulnerable to EU's trade balance and declining Chinese consumption. Despite past resilience to tariffs, Europe's worsening economic conditions and China's slowdown heighten risks for VGK investors.

Rates Spark: ECB Presser Bear-Flattened The Curve
The ECB cut rates by 25bp as widely anticipated, but a slightly hawkish tilt bear flattened the EUR curve, which in our view remains priced aggressively. In the US, as the markets head towards the Fed's first rate cut, the probability of a larger cut rose slightly on Thursday.

Draghi's €800bn Call To Action: Instilling The Urgency That Europe Needs
Former ECB President Mario Draghi's 400 pages of economists' ‘greatest hits' and a few more controversial proposals provide Europe's most comprehensive plan yet to revive its economy, decarbonise and become more self-sufficient. Economic growth in Europe has been weak compared to the US and China for a long time, but the sense of urgency around economic reform outside of crises was lacking.
