Amundi to Cut U.S. Exposure: Europe’s Largest Giant Pivots 🏛️🇪🇺📉
Major Pullback: Amundi, managing $2.4 Trillion (€2.38T), announced plans today, Feb 12, 2026, to significantly reduce its exposure to U.S. assets over the next 12 months. 📌
Concerns Cited: CEO Valerie Baudson highlighted concerns over U.S. monetary policy, record-high debt, and "political noise" surrounding President Trump’s unorthodox foreign policies as key risks. 🏛️
Shift to Europe/EM: The firm is advising a "structural pivot" toward European equities, Japanese markets, and emerging economies (India/Brazil), where valuations are seen as more attractive and less "bubbly" than U.S. Tech. ⚡
AI Concentration Risk: Amundi warned that the extreme concentration of capital in U.S. AI hyperscalers (Big Tech) has created valuation excesses that do not justify current market prices. 📊
Safe Haven Shift: As part of this diversification, Amundi is reinforcing its positions in gold and European fixed income to hedge against a potentially weaker U.S. dollar in 2026. 📈
