Stocks continued to rise in the 2nd Quarter as the Bull Market appeared to indicate higher returns and growth in its apparent return of the post pandemic economy. However, concerns of an aging Bull Market and inflation became evident this quarter even though the Fed described them as transitory or temporary price increases. Domestic stocks beat their international classes and generally larger stocks outperformed smaller ones and growth beat value stocks except in small caps. Domestic large cap growth stocks returned to leadership again this quester with a 11.9% gain closely followed by domestic real estate with a 11.8% return. Bonds on the other hand reversed losses from the prior quarter finishing positively.
