S&P 500 Market Returns And Why Your Performance Is Worse

Lance Roberts, Chief Investment Strategist, RIA Advisors -
As I wrote this blog, the S&P 500 index is up roughly 17% year-to-date. Most likely, your portfolio isn’t. This is a common frustration among many investors in the market this year in particular. As discussed previously, the S&P 500 index performance is a bit deceiving. The majority of the gain in the market this year has come from essentially seven stocks with the largest concentration in the index in terms of market capitalization.

Restrictive Yields Will Be The Fed’s Waterloo

Lance Roberts, Chief Investment Strategist, RIA Advisors -
Restrictive monetary conditions, from higher yields and tighter lending conditions, are the Fed’s “Waterloo.” If you don’t remember, the “Battle of Waterloo” was fought on June 18th, 1815. The battle was a catastrophic defeat for the Napoleonic forces and marked the end of the Napoleonic Wars. Before that defeat, Napolean had a successful campaign of waging war in Europe.

Crisis Events Are A Hallmark Of The Federal Reserve

Lance Roberts, Chief Investment Strategist, RIA Advisors -
As the “soft landing” narrative grows, the risk of a “crisis” event in the economy increases. Will the Fed trigger another crisis event? While unknown, the risk seems likely as the Fed’s “higher for longer” narrative is compromised by lagging economic data.

“Soft Landing” Hope By The Fed Is Likely Optimistic

Lance Roberts, Chief Investment Strategist, RIA Advisors -
The Fed’s “soft landing” hopes are likely overly optimistic. Such was the context of the recent #BullBearReport, which discussed the long record of the Fed’s economic growth projections.

“That 70s Show”

Lance Roberts, Chief Investment Strategist, RIA Advisors -
The hit TV series “That 70s Show” aired from 1998 to 2006 and focused on six teenage friends living in Wisconsin in the late 70s. The irony was that the actors playing the teenagers were not born in the late 70s and had never experienced life during that period. Many alive today cannot fathom a lifestyle devoid of the internet, cable television, mobile phones, and social media. Oh…the horrors.
