Jupiter is shifting capital into European government bonds, specifically short-dated debt from Germany, while reducing exposure to the United States. The asset manager, which oversees £47B ($63.5B), argues that market expectations for three interest rate hikes by the ECB are excessive. This rotation reflects a growing investor preference for euro zone sovereign debt as U.S. economic overheating risks mount.
