The 2nd quarter of 2024 was an interesting quarter to say the least. It started with a negative April, where stocks across the world were down. Which was followed by a hot may where we saw stocks soar positive to ultimately flatten out in the month of June.
Leading the way were Emerging Market Stocks at a 5% gain during the quarter, followed by the US Market at 3.22%, with the International Market down 0.6% and Global Real Estate -1.48% Meanwhile the bond markets were up 0.11% Globally and 0.07% in the US.
The good news is that all of these markets have been up over the past 1-, 5-, and 10-years, with the exception of the US Bond Market over 5 years being down 0.23%. To read the full Market Review Deck CLICK HERE.
