Navigating the Chop
After a frustrating 2022, it can be easy to get excited by a few strong weeks in the market and forget that market recoveries often encounter chop, defined by pullbacks in price. We don’t expect this recovery to be different and believe we are now entering a digestive period for stocks after a strong start in January for the market. In this week’s update, we will review the current pullback, what we think the market is trying to tell us, and how this recovery compares to prior pullbacks.
Key Takeaways
- Shallow market pullback appears organized without panicked distributions
- We think Europe remains an area of leadership – old economy over the new economy?
- We believe Energy is well set up if global consumption rebounds
