  • Morgan Stanley Downgrades Global Equities, Sees U.S. as Defensive Amid Mideast Conflict
    March 30, 2026, 12:53 PM EDT. Morgan Stanley downgraded global equities to "equal weight" from "overweight" amid rising Middle East conflict tensions and soaring oil prices, which surged 59% this month. The firm upgraded U.S. government bonds and cash to "overweight", reflecting increased demand for safe-haven assets. Strategists warned sustained oil prices near $150-$180 per barrel could slash global equity valuations by nearly 25%. The downgrade included U.S. and Japanese stocks, citing risks from supply chain issues and recession fears if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. Despite this, Morgan Stanley favors U.S. stocks due to stronger expected earnings growth and views U.S. Treasuries as better diversified, given America's lower energy import dependency compared to Europe.
