How have markets historically reacted to geopolitical conflicts? Henry Neville, Portfolio Manager at Man Group, analysed nearly 40 conflicts since the Second World War. He found that, in many cases, equities initially declined before recovering within six months, while gold has historically proven to be one of the more reliable hedges during those periods.
