S&P 500 Drawdowns since 2010 |
The month of June proved the old “sell in May go on holiday” correct for all asset classes except cash denominated in major currencies. Although a correction was long overdue both for bonds and stocks, one can’t help always feeling surprised when it arrives!

Summer corrections are nothing new since the equity rally began in 2009, as you can see in the chart below. In all instances the market dipped even further before rallying for the remaining of the year.
