Market & Investment Risk Insights Webinar (Global Equities)

Q3 2025’s calm decoded: What it means for global equity markets

Date
October 7, 2025

Time
10 AM ET / 3 PM BST / 4 PM CET    

Equity market behavior in the third quarter has been confounding. Despite increasing concerns about the direction of inflation, the specter of stagflation, the impact of tariffs and even the veracity of the underlying data, investors remained relatively calm. News was not all bad - Q2 earnings surprises were largely positive, and expectations of imminent Fed rate cuts remain. Markets hit new highs, predicted volatility remained low, style factors “behaved”, and investors were by-and-large risk seeking, not risk-avoiding.

In this webinar we will discuss the underlying reasons for the relative calm from the perspective of the Axioma risk models. We'll reveal critical signals that investors might look for that predict market shifts and uncover where hidden volatility may be building beneath Q3's calm.

Who should attend?

This webinar is essential for portfolio managers, risk managers, investment strategists, and anyone responsible for managing equity portfolios in today's complex market environment.

The webinar will be recorded so if you can’t make the event, sign up anyway and we’ll send it to you to watch in your own time.
