    Turkey's got real problems with their leadership. Erdogan has got to go.

    Years Like 2018 – Not Many!
    Jul 11, 2018

    Calling a specific period of time “unique” is often used as a cop-out by commentators and investors, so we usually try not use the term lightly. But if a certain period of time is so unique that it has no historical precedent, you can’t fault someone for saying it. In comparing the S&P 500’s performance in 2018 to prior years, we found that there really are very few years where the market has seen a similar pattern. In other words, 2018 really is unique!

    [​IMG]

    To illustrate this, we ran the correlation of the closing prices of the S&P 500 so far this year to the closing prices for every other year through 7/11. We have done this type of analysis many times over the years, and usually, when we run it, the years that have the most similarity to the year in question have correlation coefficients of +0.85 or even greater than 0.90. In the analysis we ran for 2018, however, there were only two years with a correlation coefficient of more than +0.50, and five of the top ten years have correlation coefficients of less than +0.40!

    Seeing new ATHs for AMZN and MSFT while GOOGL is pretty close to ATH as well, looks like tech continues to be the favorite sector for investors :p

    Banks earnings this morning weren’t that impressive :eek: First time in awhile that we didn’t get a great start for earnings season I think. If banks earnings next week continue to be lackluster then maybe we will continue to see money going into tech
