Has the shift arrived?
From TWSJ 6/19 by Alistair MacDonald.
Stock-market turmoil has claimed victims the world over, but some of the worst damage has been suffered by small companies'shares, which had seen the biggest run-ups in recent years. Some strategists now are calling time on the five-year bull run in small companies' stocks, as interest rate rises world-wide crimp their borrowing and prompt investors to reduce the risk in their portfolios.
Since the start of 2003, so-called small-cap stocks have soared. The Russell 2000, which tracks smaller U.S. companies, had doubled by the time it hit its peak in May, compared with a rise of 64% in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Europe's DJ Stoxx small and midcap indexes rose 113% and 125%, respectively, compared with a 43% rise in the large-capitalization stocks over the same period. But since May 9, the reverse has happened, with small and midcap indexes in the U.S. and Europe posting double-digit declines while the Dow industrials have dropped 5.4%. What you've seen over the kast month is a shift that favors big stocks over smaller ones.
The fate of small stocks is part of a broader trend of investors bailing out of riskier assets. Investors are selling off the stocks that made them most money. In some places, smaller stocks have been suffering for a while. In Japan, small stocks have underperformed for much of the year; the Tokyo Stock Exchange's Mothers small-cap index has slumped 43%. Declines in Japanese technology stocks heralded the global collapse in the technology investment bubble in 2000, and some strategists say the fall in Japanese small caps now signals the end of the smaller company bull market.
Just thought I'd share this with you S fund lovers. If I could see a $15.00 price on the S fund I would be tempted to bite that apple myself.
Bite the apple - you crazy!
Although a price of $16.11 brings us right back to the June low of $16.10. The recovery took the price to $17.34 before correcting back for the retest - and here we are. Time for the S fund game to start again.
With the belief that Fed will finally pause, the S fund has some catching up to do. POP^, POP^, POP^.....Originally Posted by Birchtree
