3 Reasons To Love Equities When Rates Are Rising

With CPI making headlines this morning..........

Nice chart on on what US equity sectors, style and size do better in rising rate environment. Jodie Gunzberg writes:

"There is overwhelming support for small caps followed closely by mid-caps, and for inflation protection, energy seems to be most sensitive"

Again, based on historical data. Future periods still are yet to be known.
