The market is strong but is it safe?

When almost everything else feels uncomfortable, earnings have been the one thing working. Ashish Utarid, Assistant Vice-President, Investment Strategy at IG Wealth Management, unpacks one of the strongest earnings seasons in years: broad-based growth, strong cash flow and all 11 sectors participating for the first time in four years. But Ashish also shares a word of caution: this is a powerful market but not necessarily a safe one. When a market is priced for perfection, good results aren't always enough. The question now isn't whether earnings are good, it's whether they can stay good enough to justify what investors are paying.
