Weekly Market Review

Talking Points

• Among equities, small-caps performed in line with large-caps, and value stocks outperformed growth-oriented issues. Domestic stocks outperformed international equities. Developed markets underperformed emerging market stocks.

• Treasury prices advanced this week. The yield on the 10-year T-note declined modestly.

• Commodity prices were higher on the week. Crude oil and precious metals advanced sharply, were higher and grains were lower.

• The dollar was sharply lower against a basket of currencies.

• Among economic data released this week, the monthly employment report showed that more jobs than expected were added during May, but the unemployment rate rose slightly to 7.6%; the ADP employment report was lower than expected; a manufacturing index declined to the lowest level in a year, but non-manufacturing services rose; and vehicle sales posted gains for May.

Weekly Highlights

• Domestic stock prices were mixed this week. Investors reacted to today’s employment report, which showed that 175,000 jobs were added in May, slightly greater than expected. However, the unemployment ticked up, from 7.5% in April to 7.6% in May.

• Global markets were lower on the week. World equity markets declined after the European Central Bank declined to announce additional stimulus measures. In addition, the rise in the Japanese yen caused Asian shares to drop sharply.

• Treasury prices were somewhat higher this week. The yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury declined this week, as investors perceived opportunity after May’s sell-off.

• Commodity indices were higher on the week. Crude oil and gold posted strong gains, but grains were slightly lower.

Unemployment Rate-Trailing 12 Mos.

A Macro View – May Monthly Recap

Domestic equity markets continued to advance in May, adding to already robust gains for the year. The first quarter earnings season wound down on a generally positive note, with 66.8% of companies reporting exceeding expectations (in line with year-ago levels) and 24.1% falling below expectations. Economic data continued to improve modestly, with housing remaining the star performer as various home price indices posted multi-year highs. The rebound in housing, combined with the stock market’s rise, resulted in a jump in consumer confidence to the highest levels since 2006. One perceived negative among economic data points was the fact that inflation trended lower. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke stated in congressional testimony that it is possible the Fed could begin to taper its bond purchases later this year if the economy continues to improve. However, the thresholds prompting a raising of interest rates – unemployment below 6.5% and inflation above 2.5% - seem to be further away, and likely won’t be met until sometime in 2014 at the earliest. Given this backdrop, the S&P 500 advanced +2.3% during May. The Dow Industrials posted a +4.5% gain, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index was up +4.0%. The Russell 2000 Index of small cap stocks outperformed the Russell 1000 Index of large cap stocks, with gains of +4.0% and +2.2%, respectively. In terms of sector performance, financials continued to be strong, gaining +6.1%, while theinterest-rate sensitive utilities sector declined -9.1%.

International equity markets did not fare as well as domestic U.S. markets in May, with the MSCI World ex-U.S. Index declining -2.1% for the month. Developed markets outperformed emerging markets during the month, with the MSCI Emerging Markets Index falling -2.5%. While some believe the situation in Europe is slowly improving, the region is still gripped by recession. As a consequence, it was difficult for European markets to match the gains of the U.S., with the MSCI Europe Index advancing only +0.4% for the month. Asia also had a difficult month, particularly in the final 10 days, as the Japanese market sold off after a period of stellar performance. The MSCI Japan Index dropped -9.5% during the final two weeks of the month, but on a year-to-date basis remains higher by more than +20%. Latin American stocks also performed poorly, largely a result of the decline in commodity prices. The MSCI Latin America Index dropped -6.9% for the month.

Fixed-income markets were hit particularly hard in May, mostly as a result of a rise in yields in U.S. Treasury securities following investor expectations of a tapering of the Fed’s bond-buying program. In addition, improving economic data contributed to the rise in yields. The benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield ended the month at 2.16%, almost 50 basis points higher than the prior month. The rise in yields meant poor performance for bond indices, as evidenced by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index decline of -1.8% for the month. Global fixed income markets also had a difficult time, with a decline in emerging markets issues helping drive indices lower. The Barclays Global Aggregate ex-U.S. Index was down -3.8% for the month. High yield bonds fared somewhat better, with the Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Index declining -0.6% for the month.

The HFRX Indices are a series of benchmarks of hedge fund industry performance which are engineered to achieve representative performance of a larger universe of hedge fund strategies. Hedge Fund Research, Inc. employs the HFRX Methodology (UCITS compliant), a proprietary and highly quantitative process by which hedge funds are selected as constituents for the HFRX Indices. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the change in the cost of a fixed basket of products and services. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) rate is a measurement of the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States. The information, analysis, and opinions expressed herein are for general and educational purposes only. Nothing contained in this weekly review is intended to constitute legal, tax, accounting, securities, or investment advice, nor an opinion regarding the appropriateness of any investment, nor a solicitation of any type. All investments carry a certain risk, and there is no assurance that an investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. An investor may experience loss of principal. Investment decisions should always be made based on the investor’s specific financial needs and objectives, goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance. The asset classes and/or investment strategies described may not be suitable for all investors and investors should consult with an investment advisor to determine the appropriate investment strategy. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Information obtained from third party sources are believed to be reliable but not guaranteed. Endowment Wealth Management makes no representation regarding the accuracy or completeness of information provided herein. All opinions and views constitute our judgments as of the date of writing and are subject to change at any time without notice. Investments in smaller companies carry greater risk than is customarily associated with larger companies for various reasons such as volatility of earnings and prospects, higher failure rates, and limited markets, product lines or financial resources. Investing overseas involves special risks, including the volatility of currency exchange rates and, in some cases, limited geographic focus, political and economic instability, and relatively illiquid markets. Income (bond) securities are subject to interest rate risk, which is the risk that debt securities in a portfolio will decline in value because of increases in market interest rates. Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are subject to risks similar to those of stocks, such as market risk. Investing in ETFs may bear indirect fees and expenses charged by ETFs in addition to its direct fees and expenses, as well as indirectly bearing the principal risks of those ETFs. ETFs may trade at a discount to their net asset value and are subject to the market fluctuations of their underlying investments. Investing in commodities can be volatile and can suffer from periods of prolonged decline in value and may not be suitable for all investors. Index Performance is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not represent the performance of any specific investment product or portfolio. An investment cannot be made directly into an index.

EWM Weekly Market Review May 31, 2013

Alternative Investments may have complex terms and features that are not easily understood and are not suitable for all investors. You should conduct your own due diligence to ensure you understand the features of the product before investing. Alternative investment strategies may employ a variety of hedging techniques and non-traditional instruments such as inverse and leveraged products. Certain hedging techniques include matched combinations that neutralize or offset individual risks such as merger arbitrage, long/short equity, convertible bond arbitrage and fixed-income arbitrage. Leveraged products are those that employ financial derivatives and debt to try to achieve a multiple (for example two or three times) of the return or inverse return of a stated index or benchmark over the course of a single day. Inverse products utilize short selling, derivatives trading, and other leveraged investment techniques, such as futures trading to achieve their objectives, mainly to track the inverse of their benchmarks. As with all investments, there is no assurance that any investment strategies will achieve their objectives or protect against losses. Neither Endowment Wealth Management nor its representatives render tax, accounting or legal advice. Any tax statements contained herein are not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding U.S. federal, state, or local tax penalties. Taxpayers should always seek advice based on their own particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor. Copyright Endowment Wealth Management, Inc. All rights reserved
