S&P Capital IQ's senior equity investment strategists and its Director of ETF Research will examine these and other issues in a complimentary webinar on December 12, 2013.  Below are some questions they will be addressing in this quarterly webinar.

  • Since it's been over two years since the S&P 500® has declined by 10% or more, versus a historical average of 18 months, do we risk another bear market the longer we go without a 10+% decline?
  • Are stocks overpriced?  Are they in a bubble?
  • What are the key drivers of S&P Capital IQ's international equity outlook?
  • How far will the S&P 500 go before we see a major pullback or correction?
  • Where are Treasury yields headed?
  • What ETF investment styles garnered the most investor attention in 2013?
  • How important should past performance be in the ETF selection process?
