Khanchit Khirisutchalual/iStock via Getty Images Investment Scorecard Global stock markets were a mixed bag in the first quarter. Markets were helped in large part by easing trade war fears and, by extension, reduced concerns about higher global tariffs. However, rising geopolitical tensions from the war in Iran weighed on sentiment across many markets. The Russia-Ukraine war dragged on, and concerns over global energy supplies continued to mount. Taiwan remains a point of contention between the United States and China, with no real resolution in sight. In the first quarter, the total return of the S&P 500 Index was down 4.3%, while most non-U.S. stock markets performed better. The MSCI EAFE was roughly flat in the quarter. Some of the weaker foreign markets were India, down over 15%, and Germany, down about 7%. South Korea, on the other hand, was up a notable 20%. Brazil had a strong quarter, with its market up 16%. During the first quarter, the Federal Reserve did not cut short-term interest rates and left them standing at 3.8%. We expect the Federal Reserve will probably keep rates steady for a few more months, even after a new Federal Reserve Chair takes over. It is worth noting that many foreign central banks have been more aggressive in normalizing interest rates.
