Welcome to our monthly briefing, where we provide a comprehensive analysis of recent economic events and their implications for the financial markets. Highlights from May’s briefing:
- Large cap growth stocks rebounded strongly, outperforming mid- and small caps; tech and consumer discretionary led sector gains, while health care lagged.
- Value stocks, which led in Q1, underperformed growth stocks in May—even on a risk-adjusted basis.
- International developed markets trailed the U.S. overall but showed lower volatility, outperforming most U.S. segments on a risk-adjusted basis except large cap growth.
