Strategy Commentary

Download Commentary

U.S. equities performed extremely well in the first quarter. Emboldened by the Fed’s accommodative pivot, investors shrugged off concerns about the economy, creating an environment that was the polar opposite of last year’s fourth quarter.

The Russell 1000® Value Index (RLV) returned 11.93%, with every sector posting strong gains – though economically sensitive sectors tended to benefit most from this quarter’s profound change in sentiment.
