Once seen as the drink of wild nights and shot glasses, tequila is undergoing a top-shelf transformation, evolving into a premium spirit rivaling the prestige of aged Scotch. But beyond the bar, tequila is now making waves in an unexpected arena: alternative investments. With global demand soaring and collectors eyeing limited casks, tequila is fast becoming a liquid asset with serious potential. What’s fueling this shift? And could your next investment be bottled in blue agave?

Markets have been moving cautiously, and November was no exception. Investors appear to be in a holding pattern, waiting for clearer signals before making major moves. The latest State Street Institutional Investor Indicators shed light on this trend: risk appetite dipped slightly, equity allocations remain solid, cash is steady, and fixed income hasn’t seen the usual safe-haven inflows.

What’s driving this cautious yet steady behaviour? Are investors diversifying globally, or sticking to familiar US tech bets? And what does this mean for markets in Asia and beyond?

On Wealth Tracker, Nadiah Koh speaks with Dwyfor Evans, Head of APAC Macro Strategy at State Street Markets, to find out more.

Vision Nanny is opening doors for families who were once left behind by giving parents and educators access to customisable, CVI-specific activities.
