Strategy Commentary

Equity indices staged a remarkable comeback in the second quarter following last quarter’s quickest-ever bear market descent. Buoyed by massive government stimulus, the hope for a COVID-19 vaccine, and indications of sequential economic improvement, value stocks performed well on an absolute basis, with the Russell 2000® Value Index (RUJ) returning 18.91%, but they again lagged their growth counterparts.
