April Market Update
Since October, stock markets have continued to do better in spite of there being lots of bad news in the media.
We do have to remember the expression ‘if it bleeds it leads’. So remember to look at the positive things around us – inflation is decreasing and unemployment is still very low.
Year to date we are at:
| North America | March | Year to Date |
|---|---|---|
| S&P/TSX | -0.6% | 6.4% |
| S&P 500 (USD) | 3.5% | 7.6% |
| World | ||
| MSCI EAFE (USD) | 1.9% | 10.4% |
The first half of 2026 has been a reminder that markets rarely move in a straight line.
