ETF Scorecard – March 13th Edition

Stoyan BojinovMar 13, 2015

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 to trend lower this week following the upbeat February employment report from the prior week in light of heightened rate hike fears. On the data release front, investors digested a slightly better-than-expected small business index reading along with negative retail sales that barely beat expectations.

Foreign Equity Review

Brazil and Russia are the worst performers across all time frames while Japanese equities have proven to be the most resilient ones from this group:

Commodities Review

Currency Review

The U.S. dollar posted the best returns for a second week in a row and it also remains the biggest winner by far from a monthly perspective:

Please note that data is updated as of market close March 12th.
