GIVEN the strengthening US dollar and volatile crude prices, United Overseas Bank is most upbeat on equities for this quarter, with a preference for the US market.
In 2014, the USD had surged by over 10 per cent on an exchange- weighted basis. UOB is confident that the USD appreciation trend should persist this year, on the back of favourable economic factors and interest rate differentials.
