Weekly Market Outlook August 12, 2018

“Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.” – Warren Buffett

Pfäffikon SZ, Switzerland – The business figures season has ended more or less. The cautious conclusion is that the economy is running well, but is not excelling. A point of attention is the increasing wage component, although we read very little about it. Investors are more under the spell of the Turkish Lira and the ins and outs around the American trade tariffs. The market could take a step back in the upward trend for the above reasons.

Next week is about oil, inflation and the latest tail of business figures.
