  • UK Equity Unconstrained Recorded: May 8 2013 46 mins
    The improved investor sentiment engendered by additional central bank stimulus in 2012 has fuelled a considerable rally in UK equities from their summer lows. While the market rose strongly overall, this masked some considerable divergences in performance, as cyclical and financial stocks in particular closed their steep discount to other sectors. Despite the market generally remaining on an upward trend in 2013, recent events have seen sharp divergence in the performance of individual sectors once again.
