Road to 2018 – Current Thoughts 1. Global economic leadership switching back to the US – and that may continue into 2018 on low inflation, low interest rates, positive employment, low commodity prices. 2.

Stocks near all-time highs and bond yields near all-time lows – something will eventually need to give but it may not be until later this decade. 4. Developed market economies are generally seeing less governmentdebt-stress – though this condition may only last into 2018. 5. Supply outpacing Demand seems prevalent for most all goods and basic materials – robust M&A likely to continue. 28
