Market & Economic Summary

  

Dightman Capital believes the key to success in today's environment is to remove entrenched investment biases and implement an adaptive investment process and execution ability. 

The following is our opinion of near-term market and economic conditions.

WINTER 2012

GLOBAL INVESTMENTS
Stocks are experiencing elevated levels of volatility which is often associated with market corrections and occasionally significant declines.  International markets have experienced the most pressure.  The overall technical structure of the market has turned somewhat bullish.

WORLD ECONOMY
The Data coming out on the global economy poses serious challenges.   European banks may be experiencing liquidity challenges.  Unemployment in the U.S. remains elevated but improving.

INFLATION DATA
We believe broad inflation will remain stable for goods and services measured by the Consumer Price Index.  There are risks of elevated prices in select categories like education, healthcare and energy.  As developed country economies continue to reduce debt levels, deflation in stocks, real estate and commodities may continue. Despite current monetary policy, inflation is likely to be held in check until National Income and Capacity Utilization have increased.

U.S. RESIDENTIAL HOUSING
It appears housing may be stabilizing in some markets.  Prices are not expected to start recovering any time soon. 

PLANNING
New conversion rules for ROTH IRAs allow high income households an opportunity to fund this unique tax treatment retirement account
