- Several themes have dominated 2022 asset allocation thinking so far: inflation, geopolitical tensions and commodity rallies.
- With oil having the most excess capacity of any of the rallying commodities, we like the risk reward in refineries, which are already doing well regardless of the crude rally.
- With sour production in Venezuela and Iran unlikely to be coupled with lots of high complexity refining capacity, there is real room for value add among refiners in the West.
- We'd also consider copper miners, because copper could become a strategic resource much like oil as questions around national security, Taiwan and semiconductors arise.
- Finally, if you want to take the most balanced view, we'd bet on the MSCI Norway, which has you exposed to the Norwegian economy and Salmon, with only a dash of oil.
