How can investors navigate equities in 2024?

Last week, we held a webinar with our partners at [**Xtrackers**](https://investengine.com/etfs/xtrackers/?back=%2Fetfs%2F) **by DWS** , discussing the investing landscape in 2024 and how investors can position themselves. You can watch the full discussion on YouTube.

**Our speakers at the event were:**

- Jasdeep Hansra, Senior Coverage Specialist at **Xtrackers by DWS**
- Lukas Ahnert, Senior Product Specialist at **Xtrackers by DWS**
- Andrew Prosser, Head of Investments at **InvestEngine**

## Key takeaways from the webinar

**Market capitalisation is an important portfolio component**

- The rise of the ‘Magnificent 7’ has supported the core portfolio
- Efficient access to the US market was an important component in 2023
- Alternative index weightings (e.g. S&P 500 Equal Weight) can help manage risks

**Thematic approaches can help to invest in trends at an early stage**

- 2024 has shown the role that thematic solutions can play in an allocation
- They should become even more important as AI trends spread across the entire value chain

**Stock market dispersion creates an environment for tactical allocations**

- Reliance on macro variables remains high – access to a wide range of sectors and factors can provide opportunities 
- The search for quality and value remains the focus for the time being, also within sectors (defensives) and DM regions (Europe) 

**_Important information_**

_Capital at risk. The value of your portfolio with InvestEngine can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invest. ETF costs also apply._
