Citi said that heightened uncertainty around the war situation has made investors more likely to choose companies with higher quality and stronger defensive characteristics. Based on the “quality/defensive tilt” principle, Citi adjusted its global asset allocation. At the same time, Citi downgraded its emerging market stock rating from “Buy/Overweight” to “Neutral,” citing that these markets are more susceptible to energy shocks and that a strengthening U.S. dollar creates additional pressure on them.
