Russell Investments’ 2021 Global Market Outlook—Q4 update: Growing pains

The Covid-19 delta variant, inflation and central bank tapering are unnerving investors. We expect the pandemic-recovery trade to resume as inflation subsides, infection rates decline and tapering turns out to not equal tightening.
