Commentary

The US equity market ended the year on a positive note, posting a sharp rally in December to reach levels that were last recorded prior to the collapse of Lehman Brothers in Autumn 2008. A whole host of economic data released during the month surprised on the upside, suggesting that the recovery is broadening out, while the US Federal Reserve maintained the target fed funds rate at 0-0.25% and left the US$600bn treasury purchasing program unchanged. Small businesses optimism (NFIB survey) rose in November to the highest level since early 2008. While the housing and labour market surveys remain the weak links in the economy, the manufacturing and export sectors continue to record strong growth. Despite concerns that the manufacturing recovery would be lacklustre and short-lived, the reality has been very different. December’s batch of official data as well as a variety of survey-based indicators, such as NY Empire State and Philly Fed, point to continued momentum in manufacturing activity. In addition to better macroeconomic data, additional fiscal stimulus in the US joined continued monetary policy in supporting risk assets. The payroll tax cut and investment tax relief, as outlined by President Obama, were positives and aimed at stimulating further business spending and job creation. Significantly, cyclical sectors such as homebuilding, construction & engineering, steel and metals & mining led the rally.
