Goldman Sachs is positive on a number of Asian markets right now, despite what it expects to be a "subdued" third quarter of the year. Sunil Koul, the bank's vice president of Asia Pacific portfolio strategy, said he expects a "moderate" return of 11% for Asian stocks this year, with muted returns this quarter before a recovery in the final three months.
And they do acknowledge that there could be a truly tactical rally in China which is our view — which is why we are overweight," Koul said. Chinese stocks have been weak this year compared to other global markets, with shares falling on concerns over the sputtering cyclical recovery. The Shanghai Composite is up only 5% year-to-date, while the Shenzhen Component is 1% higher. In comparison, the S & P 500 has soared by 16%.
