Conclusions Job growth was reasonable in Q2; unemployment remained at 7.6 percent, but payroll growth was strong. Inflation is not a large concern, for now. ISM indices showed strong movements over the quarter. Treasury rates moved aggressively higher across the curve. Dividend sectors, especially utilities, remain relatively expensive, despite a sell-off with the rise in rates. The housing recovery seems to be fully under way. GDP growth could surprise to the upside.

Looking Forward... Key themes to monitor –Employment improvement necessary for sustained recovery –Earnings season for Q2beat or miss estimates? –Can housing continue its upward trend? –Will Europe emerge from recession? –Ongoing debt ceiling debates –Emerging markets manufacturing in Q2 –Fed tapering and direction of Treasury rates

Disclosure Investing involves risks, including loss of principal amount invested due to market fluctuations. All indices are unmanaged, and investors cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The S&P 500 Index is a broad-based measurement of changes in stock market conditions based on the average performance of 500 widely held common stocks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a price-weighted average of 30 actively traded blue-chip stocks. The Bank of America Merrill Lynch U.S. Corporate Index tracks the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade corporate debt publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market. The Merrill Lynch Municipal Master Index tracks the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated investment-grade tax- exempt debt publicly issued by U.S. states and territories, and their political subdivisions, in the U.S. domestic market. The Bank of America/Merrill Lynch High-Yield Master II Index tracks the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated below-investment-grade corporate debt publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market. International investing involves special risks such as currency fluctuation and political instability. The commodities industries can be significantly affected by commodity prices, world events, import controls, worldwide competition, government regulations, and economic conditions.
