Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
While the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) generated positive returns over 2012, it declined 2.5 percent during the fourth quarter. Stocks declined as positive U.S. housing and employment data was somewhat overshadowed by weak third quarter earnings season results and by political wrangling over solutions to the fiscal cliff. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s (the Fed) overall policy remained little changed as it held rates in the zero to 0.25 percent range in its December 12 policy announcement. The Canadian dollar declined against its U.S. counterpart, which lead to enhanced returns in Canadian dollar terms.
