International Investing Doing Very Well

If you are invested internationally you had a great quarter. This is probably the best quarter since any quarter that I can remember since 2009 to be invested internationally. Because the weakness in the Dollar was a big tailwind. I think emerging markets had their best quarter in 4 years, the stocks were very strong. (iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM))

Gold: Best Quarter In Over 30 Year!

Gold had its best quarter in better than 30 years! Gold was up more than 16 percent in the first quarter. Imagine being short that especially with the amount of leverage hedge funds use. This was the first time ever that the hedge funds were net short, they ended last year net short gold!
