This article quotes the investing advices and analysis from the experts of finanancial institutes. Data released last week shows that the economy is firmly improving, while there are risks which need to be considerated about. While real GDP growth for the first quarter appears to have been in a range of 2% to 4%, the second quarter could see a number closer to 5%, which, were it to materialize, could have a significant impact both on perceptions of the recovery and prospects for the bond and stock markets. Mr.Saut from Raymond James also thinks that the economy will be in a virtuous cycle. In the first quarter, the stock market followed a volatile path that looks to be on track to end with a solid gain. We believe this pattern of performance may repeat in the second quarter, given the conditions and events that are likely to unfold during the quarter. At last, Mr.Huxley gives us some advices about asset allocation by comparing yields of CDs, US Treasuries and Agencies.
