…Everything – all twenty-four indexes were up for a very rare change!
However, even though things are looking up not everything is up this year just yet :
The Dow is down is down -10% YTD
The S&P 500 is down -5%
US Large Growth is up 5.5%
US Tech is up 9.1%
US Large Value remains down -15.1% YTD
All three US Value Indexes rose 1/3 more last week than Large Growth.
So, which would you rather be in:
Any single one of these asset classes by equal chance, or, all of them? All of them of course! That’s why we diversify across 20+ asset classes.
Have a great weekend!
