S&P 500 EPS Growth – EPS growth driven most by margin expansion
Sector Weights Over Time – tech sector weight highest level since 2000
Correlations between rates and stock returns – yields below 5%, rising rates associated with rising stock prices
Price of Oil – Crude prices above $74 through June
Global PMI – ratings over 50 indicate “strong” position
