Can AI save high-labour firms?

24. Mai 2023
Companies with a large number of employees have a big problem. Quite simply, they fail to extract as much value from each staff member as do low-staff firms. Indeed, labour-intense firms tend to have a lower market cap, thinner margins, and lower growth rates. AI may be the way forward. In this piece, we argue that AI will make workers more productive, particularly in high-staff firms.

AI will help upskill them and streamline repetitive and mundane tasks that are more prevalent in high-staff companies. [mehr]

Nachdem die EZB vorletzte Woche ihren Einlagenzinssatz noch einmal angehoben hat, scheint bei den großen Zentralbanken der Welt der Zinsgipfel erreicht zu sein. Fed, BoE und SNB ließen letzte Woche ihre Zinsen unverändert, obwohl die Märkte bei den letzteren beiden Erhöhungen erwartet hatten. Einzig bei der BoJ, die letzte Woche ihre Geldpolitik ebenfalls nicht änderte, könnte irgendwann doch noch ein Ende der negativen Zinsen und der Kontrolle der Zinsstrukturkurve auf die Tagesordnung kommen.

Diese Woche werden die Federal Reserve Bank, die Bank of England und die Bank of Japan ihre Entscheidungen verkünden.

Intriguing Market Insights from Luke Templeman, Olga Cotaga and Galina Pozdnyakova. Despite being closer to a Fed pause, many rate-sensitive assets are yet to recover. Investors are cautious, perhaps due to last year's rapid drops. But if history is any indicator, any post-pause rally could be swift.
In years like 2023, the latter part of the year tends to be good for equities. Hedge funds, trailing the S&P 500, may make moves to catch up.

Die EZB dürfte ihre Leitzinsen am Donnerstag unverändert lassen. Es wird aber interessant, wie „hawkish“ die Pressekonferenz ausfallen wird und insbesondere, wie die Inflations- und Konjunkturrisiken kommentiert werden. Im Vorfeld der am 20. September anstehenden Fed-Sitzung dürften unter anderem die August-Daten zu den US-Verbraucher- und Erzeugerpreisen erhöhte Aufmerksamkeit bekommen. Wir es um die chinesische Konjunktur steht, werden am Freitag die Meldungen zur Industrieproduktion und zu den Einzelhandelsumsätzen für den August näher beleuchten. [mehr]
