Markets were somewhat mixed to start out the week, after facing down a couple of weeks’ worth of losses as the result of geopolitical concerns related to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. There still does not seem to be a clear direction for the markets on the international scene and with the Federal Reserve announcing its next monetary decision this week, the domestic picture is still uncertain as well.
Due to the uncertainty, and as trade alliances seem to be shifting, one major Wall Street investment house issued a sweeping series of downgrades for Chinese companies. J.P. Morgan was behind practically all these calls, and the price target cuts are brutal.
