Today China announced a rate cut, the first in two years, and Mario Draghi announced the ECB would expand its stimulus program if inflation did not return to the ECB's target level. These two announcements have resulted in global equity markets spiking higher. The two actions are likely to result in further strength in the US Dollar. With this in mind, investors should remain cognizant of market performance when the dollar strengthens. As the below chart shows, emerging markets historically underperform the S&P 500 Index in a period of Dollar strength.
