In our Summertime Market Update we discuss the current state of the market and which indicators we are monitoring to guide our asset management decisions. Here are the key takeaways:
- After record recession, support and recovery, the future is less certain
- Buying the dip has worked very well since the ‘COVID Bottom’ of 2020
- Investors should not be surprised with a mild correction at this point
- Some deterioration in key indicators presents a warning sign but this is offset by positive earnings growth, continued support from the Fed and a low interest rates
- Elevated asset prices suggest lower rates of return moving forward
- Stratos Private Wealth is focusing on our ‘Watch Reports’ to guide us through the summer to see if any pull back should be viewed as an opportunity or a reason to get defensive
