Last week…was another tough week for the markets.
All US Equities were down. Growth companies were down less than Value companies. Tech and Health Care were both down as well. Small Value was
down the most, over 3%.
US REITS were down over 5%, with Global REITS taking a softer blow, down 2%.
Commodities were up almost .5%, still hanging strong in the 30% YTD return range.
Foreign Equities were all down, but not as much as the US. Foreign Small Caps displayed the same pattern as the US, i.e., it was down the most.
Emerging Markets were also up, but not very much.
Some bonds showed some life! US Short-Term Treasuries and Corporates were up .26% and 1.21% respectively. But the big showoffs were US Intermediate Treasuries and Corporates up 4.71% and 3.06% respectively.
Have a great weekend!
