2013’s Top 10 Lessons for Investors from LPL Financial ResearchJP Marketing | NE
Each year that passes contains some wisdom for investors, but along with that wisdom can be some folly. 2013 was a year that bestowed an abundance of each on investors.
HIGHLIGHTS: The top 10 lessons of 2013 for investors need to be put into two categories: those that investors can take to heart as sound wisdom for the year to come, and those they should try to forget as they prepare for 2014.
U.S. economy struggles to emerge from deep freeze. As 2014 began, the foundation was in place for better economic growth as the drags on the U.S. economy in 2013 were poised to reverse. But Mother Nature had other ideas, and severe winter weather caused significant disruptions to the U.S. economy. However, signs have emerged in recent weeks that the economy has made some progress underneath all that snow and ice. Underlying fundamentals in the labor market suggest that the job market may be thawing, and businesses are beginning to invest more in future growth through capital spending.

It has been seven years since the last financial crisis. In that seven-year period, the total global debt has increased by even more than it did in the seven years previous (2000-2007). From the end of 2007 through to the end of the first half of last year, total global debt increased by 40%, or $US 57 TRILLION! This massive increase in debt has been a consequence of easy money in a low interest rate environment aided and abetted by programs of quantitative easing (the provision of liquidity by central banks) in order to promote economic growth and investment.
The first quarter managed to record some positive results overall, despite severe declines in some sectors.
THIRD QUARTER 2015 RETROSPECTIVE AND PROSPECTIVE We’ve Seen This Movie BeforeRobert Champion
Global markets remained in turmoil as concerns regarding the global economy persisted.

Are the good times here to stay or are we hearing the Sirens’ call? Since 2008, investors have been on an odyssey. Gradually, stock markets have managed to recover from the disastrous carnage precipitated by the financial crisis of 2007 and 2008. It has been an uneven path back to current market levels as there have been many occasions when it appeared that the fragile recovery would be stymied by bickering politicians, slowing emerging economies, deflationary pressures, regulatory zeal, civil unrest in the Middle East, over spent consumers, etc

It's not getting any easier to invest, with the US economy growing quickly in the midst of trade wars and rising interest rates. The rest of the world is performing more modestly, and is more worried by US developments than the Americans.
Australia's doing better than we realise, with expansion of our resource exports, and population growth supportive of our economy, if not our stock market.
The easy gains in markets are past - we are confronted by rising world interest rates in conjunction with already elevated asset prices. Managing risk and avoiding complacency will be key.
Growth stocks are most expensive relative to their net present value, while value stocks have been depressed in relative terms. Markets are overpricing growth and underpricing stability.
