Review
Global equities rose modestly in July, bolstered by progress in US trade talks for most of the period. A positive start to the second-quarter earnings season also boosted stocks, although gains were capped after President Trump stepped up his campaign against Federal Reserve Chair Jay Powell, raising concerns about the central bank’s independence, as well as by ongoing geopolitical tensions. Turning to sectors, information technology and energy were the strongest sectors in the MSCI All-Country World Index, followed by utilities. Conversely, the health care and consumer staples sectors generated negative returns in July.
