Saxobank’s Chief Economist: 2015 Is A Lost Year (and Here’s Why)

Even though the US has seen so-called ‘strong’ job numbers and Europe is forecast to grow 1.5% this year, Saxo Bank’s Chief Economist Steen Jakobsen says 2015 will be a lost year. That’s because the two supposed growth engines of the world – the US economy and emerging markets – will grind to a halt and slow Europe down in the process. As we already pointed out, for the first time since Lehman, US earnings are now expected to drop in 2015 – apparently confirming this second-half hockey-stick is now dead… and as Jakobsen explains in this brief clip, capital preservation remains a must going into the second quarter of the year… with 10Y Treasury yields expected below 1.5% by the end of the year.
