Stock Market Commentary– July 2024 "You can't predict. You can prepare." – Howard Marks June was a mixed month for equity investors. Large cap indexes continued their upward assent as the small-cap and mid-cap indexes retreated for the second straight month.

Brokers are the most bullish on FTSE stocks since at least 2015, according to a new analysis, as the market’s recent underperformance has made shares cheaper. Investment platform AJ Bell found that as of earlier this month, 59 per cent of all analyst ratings were “buy” and just eight per cent “sell” for FTSE 100 companies – the highest and lowest figures respectively in at least eight years.
