Market comment:
Both the U.S. equity and the U.S. bond markets were positive for May. SPY (S&P 500 ETF) added +1.41% and TLT (30-Year Treasury ETF) added +1.89%. Even though SPY is reaching new all-time heights, it under-performed many of our strategies and in particular the ones with foreign exposure, such as the World-Top 4, Global Market and Global Sector Rotation strategies. This shows that the U.S equity market is slowing down compared to foreign and emerging markets. On the other hand, Brazil, with a, -18% drop on May 18th reminds us that these markets suffer from local political risk and need to be properly hedged and diversified.
Our top 3 strategies continue to be the biggest gainers for May. Our 3x UIS strategy added another +4.3%, the MYRS added +3.11% and the Nasdaq 100 added +2.99%. On the 4th and 5th spot are the Global Market rotation(+11.23% YTD) and Global Sector Rotation (+11.75% YTD) strategies.
Summer is often volatile. Our slow and steady risers cam limit your risk: BRS (+6.81 YTD%) and the BUG (+6.29% YTD) bond-based strategies.
We wish you a healthy and prosperous 2017.
