Stocks Approaching Secular Highs vs. Bonds
Weekly Technical Themes – Stocks Approaching Secular Highs vs. Bonds
Finding more actionable technical longs than shorts
MACRO – Stocks vs Bonds continue to improve and challenge secular highs – Continue to overweight stocks.
• Stocks versus Bonds – Challenging their long‐term (2014, 2007 and 2000) relative highs. • S&P 500 – Reverses from initial support at the May lows with potential to ‘break‐out’ to all‐time highs still in place.

[email protected] All values in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
Priced as of market close June 11, 2015 (unless otherwise stated).
• Small‐cap Index – Price pattern remains bullish and poised to break to new 2015 highs with improving relative performance. • RBC Economic Scorecard – Continues to rebound and is supportive of a Cyclical rebound/improvement.
• International Markets – EAFE continues to ‘pause/consolidate’ under trend line resistance while EM remains weak/range bound within a relative downtrend.
• Other Macro – Rates: US 10’s reverse 2014‐2015 downtrend, Euro‐Oil: Range bound, Gold: Bullion lags HUI – See pages 15‐22.
• In‐Depth US Equity Relative Performance Review – Sectors, Industry groups and S&P 500 & 400 assessed – See pages 23‐36.
SECTORS & IDEAS – Cyclicals improving while Bond Proxies weaken and secular Growth remains mixed – See pages 37‐71.
• In Wednesday’s It’s All Relative, we noted how we are finding more attractive technical ideas on the long side than short side given the recent decline in many groups. Today’s note features positive technical patterns with most (not all) ranked outperform by RBC’s fundamental analysts. • Financials – Banks and Brokers accelerating from 12+ trading ranges – Use pending near‐term pullbacks to add exposure: ETFC, SCHW, SIVB, EWBC, KEY, CMA, C, AIG
• Industrials – Selectively improving and tracking RBC Economic Scorecard higher: FDX, EXPD, IEX, RHI, MAS, JBHT
• Healthcare, Discretionary and Technology leaders – Buy ideas after 2015 pullbacks/consolidations: GILD, BIIB, CELG, HSIC, STJ, ZTS, DG, NWL, MHK, DLPH, JCI, MA, ADS, ADBE, CRM, NFLX, FB
• Global Cyclicals – USD/Euro/Oil debate continues – This theme remains range bound with short‐term lows developing: LYB, PPG.
• Bond Proxies – REITs, Utilities and select Staples – Weakness continues – Use pending short‐term rebounds to reduce exposure.

Required Disclosures
Conflicts Disclosures
This product constitutes a compendium report (covers six or more subject companies). As such, RBC Capital markets chooses to provide specific disclosures for the
subject companies by reference. To access conflict of interest and other disclosures for the subject companies, clients should refer to
https://www.rbccm.com/GLDisclosure/PublicWeb/DisclosureLookup.aspx?entityId=1. These disclosures are also available by sending a written request to RBC
Capital Markets Research Publishing, P.O. Box 50, 200 Bay Street, Royal Bank Plaza, 29th Floor, South Tower, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2W7 or an email to
[email protected].
The analyst(s) responsible for preparing this research report received compensation that is based upon various factors, including total revenues of the member
companies of RBC Capital Markets and its affiliates, a portion of which are or have been generated by investment banking activities of the member companies of
RBC Capital Markets and its affiliates.
Distribution of Ratings
For the purpose of ratings distributions, regulatory rules require member firms to assign ratings to one of three rating categories - Buy, Hold/Neutral, or Sell regardless of a firm's own rating categories. Although RBC Capital Markets' ratings of Top Pick/Outperform, Sector Perform and Underperform most closely
correspond to Buy, Hold/Neutral and Sell, respectively, the meanings are not the same because our ratings are determined on a relative basis (as described above).

Conflicts Policy
RBC Capital Markets Policy for Managing Conflicts of Interest in Relation to Investment Research is available from us on request. To access our current policy,
clients should refer to https://www.rbccm.com/global/file-414164.pdf or send a request to RBC CM Research Publishing, P.O. Box 50, 200 Bay Street, Royal Bank

Dissemination of Research and Short-term Trade Ideas
RBC Capital Markets endeavors to make all reasonable efforts to provide research simultaneously to all eligible clients, having regard to local time zones in overseas
jurisdictions. RBC Capital Markets' equity research is posted to our proprietary website to ensure eligible clients receive coverage initiations and changes in ratings,
targets and opinions in a timely manner. Additional distribution may be done by the sales personnel via email, fax, or other electronic means, or regular mail. Clients
may also receive our research via third party vendors. RBC Capital Markets also provides eligible clients with access to SPARC on the Firm’s proprietary INSIGHT
website, via email and via third-party vendors. SPARC contains market color and commentary regarding subject companies on which the Firm currently provides
equity research coverage. Research Analysts may, from time to time, include short-term trade ideas in research reports and / or in SPARC. A short-term trade idea
offers a short-term view on how a security may trade, based on market and trading events, and the resulting trading opportunity that may be available. A short-term
trade idea may differ from the price targets and recommendations in our published research reports reflecting the research analyst's views of the longer-term (one
year) prospects of the subject company, as a result of the differing time horizons, methodologies and/or other factors. Thus, it is possible that a subject company's
common equity that is considered a long-term 'Sector Perform' or even an 'Underperform' might present a short-term buying opportunity as a result of temporary
selling pressure in the market; conversely, a subject company's common equity rated a long-term 'Outperform' could be considered susceptible to a short-term
downward price correction. Short-term trade ideas are not ratings, nor are they part of any ratings system, and the firm generally does not intend, nor undertakes any
obligation, to maintain or update short-term trade ideas. Short-term trade ideas may not be suitable for all investors and have not been tailored to individual investor
circumstances and objectives, and investors should make their own independent decisions regarding any securities or strategies discussed herein. Please contact
your investment advisor or institutional salesperson for more information regarding RBC Capital Markets' research.

part of the compensation of the responsible analyst(s) named herein is, or will be, directly or indirectly, related to the specific recommendations or views expressed by
