ICICI Securities Report
Rising risk-free rate (bond yield) is resulting in equity valuation contraction which is accentuated by the rise in systematic risk due to geopolitical crisis – As articulated in our year ahead outlook for CY22 (Strategy Year ahead 2022), the pressure on equity valuations is emanating from rising ‘risk-free rate' (bond yields) and quantitative easing easing reversal.
Spike in ‘systematic risk' due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict accentuated the pressure on equity valuations. Systematic risk is receding as the global brinkmanship reduces (although far from over) over the Russia-Ukraine conflict while the effects of rising risk-free rate driven by rising inflation persist.
