  • Tax cuts could lead to better short-term growth, says Chief Investment Officer Mike Wilson, but they could also cause the sorts of excesses which precede a recession. "[This] is something credit markets figure out before equities."
  • Preparing for deterioration in lower-quality earnings led by lower operating margins, remaining high-yield positions have recently been cut to zero.
  • Morgan is making the move as the rally in high-yield continues to roll along, with the Bloomberg Barclays (LON:BARC) Global High Yield rising to a record high this week.
