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.

Apple’s report on Monday will be one of the biggest market movers as it is not only the largest S&P 500 component, but it is also a new-addition to the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Though it has flown under the radar, crude oil prices have been recovering as of late, with this week seeing a few strong sessions from the fossil fuel.
