After a frenetic start to the year, markets are taking a time out with investors looking for signs that we are near a peak in official interest rates. However, with central banks likely to keep raising interest rates until inflation starts to cool down, it is premature to call a bottom to what has thus far been a torrid year in financial markets.
Exchanges profited from higher than usual trading volumes in the first quarter caused partly by the Russia-Ukraine conflict and rapidly rising interest rate expectations. Volumes have, however, now fallen across all asset classes to a more historically normalised level. The declining volumes are weighing on exchange stocks, and the three months to the end of June saw the FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index down by 13.9%.
