Per a Bloomberg report, Papic suggests that investing in China and Europe, or regions with a massive upside, could help investors extract the most profits out of the current situation.

“My favorite region is Europe. Particularly financials and telecoms, where I would expect to see a lot of consolidation and M&A.
