ETF Scorecard – February 27th Edition

Stoyan BojinovFeb 27, 2015
2015-02-27

To help investors keep up with markets, we present our ETF Scorecard, which takes a step back and looks at how various asset classes across the globe are performing.

Major equity indexes continued their ascent as the Fed emphasized its commitment to maintaining an accommodative monetary policy for the foreseeable future; furthermore, policymakers continued to express the notion that even when rates do finally rise, the hikes will be very gradual in nature, which was welcomed by investors on Wall Street.

Commodities Review

Copper prices posted the biggest gains for the week and the industrial metal is now the biggest winner from a monthly perspective with crude oil trailing closely behind:

Currency Review

The euro posted the biggest losses for the week and remains the biggest loser from a monthly perspective as well:
