Momentum Global flagged a risk-on surge in May 2026, citing IPO momentum and heavy demand for chip-related equities.
Global equities rose 5%; Nasdaq gained 8.4%; MSCI Emerging Markets advanced 9.7%, led by Korea’s Kospi up 23%.
Brent crude fell 19.3% in May as Hormuz deal expectations shifted, easing inflation pressure and supporting risk assets.
Bonds lagged despite lower oil; US Treasuries returned 0.1% in May, while US high yield gained 0.5%.
Strategy focus shifted to broader equity diversification, warning narrow leadership could amplify volatility while Treasuries carry higher idiosyncratic risk.
