10 Mar Shares have had a very strong rebound since March last year so where are we in the investment cycle?
Key Points:
- The history of cyclical bull markets in shares suggests that the rebound since last March still has a way to go.
- But it’s normal for the second 12 months of a cyclical bull market to see slower returns from shares.
- While shares are vulnerable to a further correction triggered by the spike in bond yields, we are not seeing the sort of unambiguous overvaluation, economic overheating, monetary tightening and investor euphoria normally seen at cyclical tops.
