Trade risks
-
There is a growing risk that investors consider equity markets overbought and that could see a sharp correction lower. It is hard to know when that correction will come, but investors need to be aware of the potential risk.
-
Beware the ‘Sell in May and Go Away’ dynamic that typically sees stocks markets fall during the summer months.
-
Watch the Fed. If they talk about bond tapering, that could cause US 10 Y bond yields to rocket higher and drag equities lower.
