MARKET PERSPECTIVE 4Q 2017

Another Very Strong Year

The year ended on a remarkably strong note, with fourth quarter

performance echoing the same story we have been telling for several

quarters: Equities performed well across the globe, and large growth stocks

dominated value and small cap, as we continue one of the longest periods

of growth outperforming value on record.

Market Perspective 4Q 2017 JANUARY 2018


2017 Capital Markets Review

U.S. EQUITIES PERFORMANCE

• Equity returns exceeded

expectations across the board

in 2017.

• While a weaker dollar boosted

non-U.S. stock performance for

U.S. investors, local currency

market returns were also

competitive with U.S. markets.

• Other market trends

remained intact, with growth

outperforming value and large

cap outperforming small cap;

these remain headwinds for

active manager performance.

• Market commentators

highlighted the low level of

equity volatility, but in fact we

did see volatility below the

surface.

• For the year, IT led the

U.S. market while energy

and telecom lagged by

approximately 40%.

Market Performance: 3 Month




STRONG GLOBAL PERFORMANCE

For the year, Information Technology led the U.S. market while Energy and Telecom lagged by approximately 40%.





FIXED INCOME PERFORMANCE

• The fixed income yield curve

flattened as a result of Federal

Reserve tightening.

• The long end of the Treasury

curve was supported throughout

2017 by modest increases in

inflation numbers.

• Concerns regarding higher yields

and increased market volatility

dampened the performance of

the mortgage sector.

Treasury Yield Curve

Market Performance: 3 Month Market Performance: 12 Month

Reflecting the strength of the equity markets, corporate bonds—both investment grade and high yield—generated significant outperformance versus Treasuries on a duration-adjusted basis.





SYNCHRONIZED ECONOMIC GROWTH

MODERATE INFLATION

• The world is beginning to show

signs of synchronized growth

rates.

• While we are nowhere near

an inflationary spiral, inflation

numbers have increased

globally and are also becoming

synchronized.

• Fears of deflation have subsided,

setting the stage for continued

Federal Reserve interest

rate hikes and a reduction in

quantitative easing in both

Europe and Japan.

This trend is positive for corporate earnings, and U.S. companies are expected to post higher earnings growth as a result of tax reform.

BOND VS. EQUITY VALUATIONS

• Value investing is anticipated

to become the new vehicle for

“defensive investing,” replacing

the bond substitutes of high

dividend investing.

• The sustained market rally

has stretched equity price-to-

earnings ratios relative to history.

• We must be prepared for normal

market corrections (10-20%), yet

relative equity valuations do not

portend a long bear market.

• Bond P/E ratios tend to follow

equities; equities tend to trade

at higher P/E values due to

potential earnings growth.

• The Fed’s reaction to the

NASDAQ and housing crashes

changed that relationship; bonds

now trade at a clear valuation

premium to equities.

• Until this market distortion ends,

equities could trade at P/E levels

historically considered rich.

• Higher earnings expectations

support current valuations.

GROWTH CONTINUES TO DOMINATE VALUE

Growth has outperformed value for one of the longest periods on record.

Value Regains Dominance Over Growth – At some point, the trend of growth outperforming value will reverse. My concern is that when this occurs, it will be in the face of a market downturn. Should value investors be careful what they wish for?

Inflation – After close to two decades of dormancy, without a meaningful uptick for close to 40 years, will inflation become a concern? After all, inflation in Japan is starting to show positive readings.

Separatist Movement in Spain – Will they or won’t they? And what will be the impact on the eurozone, both from an economic standpoint (probably little) and in terms of the euro itself? How many challenges can the currency survive?

Saudi Arabia – Lower oil prices are beginning to take a toll. Will there be political and social unrest in the kingdom as the government seeks to increase non-oil revenue? A shift in the balance of power in the Middle East bears watching.

Israel and Palestine – Despite predictions to the contrary, perhaps the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel will indeed bring about a peaceful resolution with Palestine. We hope, but remain vigilant.

In closing, as corporate earnings continue to improve, the valuation of bonds leaves stocks relatively attractive despite Fed tightening. The base case remains: modest returns from equities driven by increased earnings. Yet the old adage remains: beware the bus you don’t see.

Impact of Tax Reform – It came down to the wire, but Congress passed a tax package before year-end. There is no doubt the reduction in corporate tax rates is a welcome development, bringing the taxation of corporate profits in line with other countries. This change can not only make U.S. companies more competitive but—more importantly—remove some of the incentives for them to pursue non-economic activities, such as tax inversions and issuing U.S. debt while maintaining large offshore cash balances.

However, for all the positives of corporate tax reform, the little voice inside is whispering: beware the unintended consequences. The debate surrounding this tax bill was relatively benign compared to previous legislation. Lingering questions:

• What is lurking behind the details that may provide perverse incentives?

• Will the nascent housing recovery collapse?

• How will high-tax states, which are beleaguered by unfunded pension systems and stressed budgets, fare if we see the migration of productive workers to more “tax-friendly” jurisdictions?

Unfortunately, the tax bill made little progress toward simplification. The purpose of federal taxation is to provide revenue for the U.S. government, yet we are left with potentially more inefficient tax-driven behavior as individuals and corporations wade through the implications of this legislation.

John Kenneth Galbraith purportedly said something along the lines of “the only purpose of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable.” Rather than contributing to astrology’s respectability, I will avoid economic forecasts and will attempt to outline some of the risks I see impacting markets in 2018.
