When investing it is important to not only be aware of what is happening in your own local market but also the myriad of markets around the world that interact and influence it. One must understand the trends and implications both locally and globally. Global markets continued their upward trajectory and held momentum through March. The most newsworthy stories have been that the May government narrowly avoided the cliff edge with a deadline extension for Brexit negotiations and economic data out of China showing some surprises to the upside. The Chinese government continues to incrementally deliver stimulus to the economy and credit conditions continue to ease up, which we would suggest is the biggest leading indicator of aggregate demand in the short run. This bodes particularly well for the broader emerging markets in the Asia Pacific and Australia where elections will continue to dominate the headlines until the end of May.
