The problem is,central banks don't have the right tools,according to Mohamed El-Erian,CEO of PIMCO.The best they can do is provide a bridge,but it has to be a bridge to somewhere.
The politicians aren't doing enough.People are refusing to invest because of the uncertainty.The Fed has been the investor's best friend,supporting valuations and markets.
Our baseline is 1.5% growth-plus or minus 0.5%.If politicians don't get their act together,that would push us into recession.If nothing happens,that will unambiguously throw us into recession.
The sooner,the better.Already businesses are pulling back,investing less.
Be very careful.Focus on sovereigns and companies with strong balance sheets and can give back cash to shareholders,Mr.El-Erian counseled.
Mohamed El-Erian is also co-Chief Investment Officer at PIMCO along with founder Bill Gross.The company now offers a wide range of both active and passive exchange-traded funds,as well as mutual funds.
