Trends are Up, But Risk is Rising

The market remains in an uptrend, but red flags continue to pop up—sentiment is very giddy and complacent by many measures, while our Two-Second Indicator is telling us the broad market is weakening. On the plus side, growth stocks have perked up a bit. Thus, we remain in a bull market, but it’s also clear risk is elevated. That’s the main reason we’ve held on to our strong performers ... but also held onto a decent chunk of cash (35% or so) to provide cushion should the sellers take control. Today, we do have one change: swapping out Salesforce.com with HomeAway, which we feel could be a new leader.
