Amid the complexities of the upcoming US presidential elections, evolving geopolitical tensions and global macroeconomic trends, John Woods, chief investment officer and head of investment solutions at Lombard Odier Asia, provides insight into his market outlook and investment strategies. 

In an interview with The Edge Singapore, Woods highlights that Lombard Odier’s base case reflects a soft landing.

“The data is telling us that a soft landing is the most likely outcome. If you look at the labour market consumption, if you look at investment, it is all suggesting a Goldilocks outcome – not too hot, not too cold,” Woods notes.
