Fidelity Analyst Survey 2019

By Richard Edgar Editor in Chief

This year's Fidelity International Analyst Survey reveals a corporate landscape of retreating confidence and quiet positioning for lower growth. But while the age of optimism might be over for now, recession is not yet upon us. Our research shows opportunities are still out there but investors need to work harder to find them, test them, and think carefully about where they take risk. By aggregating the expert opinions of our team of analysts, this survey provides a unique perspective on the world from the bottom up. Read, listen and watch to find out what we learned. - Richard Edgar, Editor in Chief
