Stock Market and Economic Cycles:
"If you don't know where you're going, all roads will lead you there."

Understanding stock market and economic cycles along with their interplay is important for knowing what sectors may benefit from a particular phase of the cycle(s). Below are some hyperlinks to some chart that may be helpful in determining at what phase in the cycle we may be participating and what stock market sectors may be the beneficiary.
As always, each investment and economic cycle is unique. The chart should only be used as a reference point and should incorporate your personal sentiments about stocks and the economy.
