With global stocks having experienced their worst performance in over a decade and bonds suffering significant declines, investors are cautiously eyeing the potential challenges in 2023. While some remain hopeful about interest rate reductions, China’s post-COVID recovery, and easing tensions in Europe, there are five potential scenarios that could disrupt markets further.

Persistent Inflation
Matthew McLennan from First Eagle Investment Management cautions that ongoing wage growth and supply-side pressures, such as high energy costs, could maintain high inflation rates. This scenario might prevent the anticipated policy shift to interest rate cuts by central banks, potentially leading to declines in stocks and bonds, a stronger dollar, and additional difficulties in emerging markets. McLennan also warns of the Federal Reserve possibly overlooking the risk of a financial crisis in their efforts to combat inflation.

China’s Uncertain Path
Chinese stocks have seen a significant rebound in anticipation of the economy’s full reopening. However, JPMorgan’s global market strategist Marcella Chow highlights concerns over China’s healthcare system coping with rising infections and potential economic downturns. The fragile recovery in Chinese equities could be undermined by any stumble in economic activity, affecting commodity markets, especially industrial metals and iron ore.

Escalation of the Russia-Ukraine Conflict
John Vail from Nikko Asset Management points out that an escalation in the Russia-Ukraine war, especially with increased NATO involvement or secondary sanctions affecting trade partners like India and China, would be detrimental. This could trigger global supply shocks in food, energy, and other essential commodities. The use of a tactical nuclear weapon, while currently seen as unlikely, would have devastating consequences for global agriculture exports.

Emerging Markets Challenges
Emerging markets might face another tough year if dollar strength does not wane or if energy costs do not decrease. Shane Oliver of AMP Services notes that a strong U.S. dollar is particularly challenging for emerging market countries with dollar-denominated debts, and any increase in energy prices would exacerbate these difficulties.

COVID-19 Threats
Finally, the emergence of a more contagious or lethal COVID-19 variant could renew supply chain disruptions, fuel inflation, and hinder economic growth. Chow from JPMorgan anticipates that larger economies and those heavily reliant on trade would be most affected by such developments. However, she expects that the virus will continue to diminish and foresees market negativity centering more around a potential recession in the U.S. and Europe rather than the pandemic.
