Citi Reduces Exposure to US Stocks Due to Ongoing War Risks
On March 27, Citi announced it is reducing its exposure to US stocks and warned that the conflict in Iran is unlikely to end quickly, with rising downside risks. The bank has downgraded its overweight position in small-cap stocks to neutral and adjusted its overall stock allocation to neutral, citing oil shocks, weak macro signals, and tightening liquidity. The market is already under pressure, with major indices approaching correction territory; Citi cautioned that current levels of panic are limited, and if tensions escalate, there is still room for further market declines.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.
According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
