Throughout 2021, we’ve explored a variety of macroeconomic influences on equity risk and performance, from interest rates to inflation, commodities, and more. Of course, the magnitude of the macro role in equity markets fluctuates over time but, for many, it has felt as though macroeconomic factors have been a massive driver of performance for nearly two years running.

We had the opportunity to launch powerful and innovative products like RETINA™, Macro Basket offerings, a new Tactical Asset Allocation service and Asset to Asset mapping. We also established partnerships that allow more users globally to extract Signal from Noise using Qi’s macro-based insights, like our partnership
with Symphony the leading markets’ infrastructure and technology platform and our partnership with
Omega Point, a portfolio intelligence tool for fundamental-style managers.

I wish you clarity in everything you do and remember to Look Up™ in 2022.

Ten years ago it was the traditional bottom-up equity investors that dominated equity flows, but that’s no longer the case, says Noorani, who has a background in macro investing for hedge funds, asset managers and investment banks. He points to figures published by JP Morgan, which suggest that 60% of US equity flows are now driven by retail investors, and only 25% are coming from traditional bottom-up equity investors.
