Enough issues out there to keep investors on their toes - ANZ

Analysts at ANZ explained that it is notable that markets have been more skittish recently.

Key Quotes:

"Volatility has picked up, the JPY has gained a firmer footing, and stocks and commodities are off their highs.

Whether it is the flattest yield curve in a decade (and what that has historically signalled for future growth), the recent troubles in high- yielding credit, or lingering geopolitical tensions, it is not entirely clear what has markets spooked.

But it is a reminder that even though the global economy is experiencing its most broad-based upswing in years, there are enough issues out there to keep investors on their toes, and the extremely subdued market volatility backdrop was never going to be sustained."
