Man Group: Asia stocks will be first to emerge from downturn


MAN Group Plc expects Asian stocks to outshine other regions next year as softer inflation and the end of an earnings downgrade cycle set the ground for an early rebound.

Within the region, the hedge fund giant is betting on defensive stocks in India and South-East Asia while cautioning that equities across northern Asia remain more vulnerable to trade headwinds and the economic slowdown in China.
