Eurozone recession fears lead to lower IMF outlook 

The International Monetary Fund updated its World Economic Outlook on Jan.
24 and cited expectations of a mild recession in the eurozone as a key
driver of slower growth. The IMF predicts world output will grow by an
average of 3.6% annually over the next two years as growth in advanced
economies will average of 1.5% annually in 2012 and 2013, while growth in
emerging and developing economies is expected to average 5.75% over the same
period.  <http://e.ccialerts.com/a/hBPIWPhB7j4o2B7uYziNsf31jRI/in1013> >

Institutional investors digging dividends 

Dividend-focused "equity-income" strategies - which have continued to enjoy
heavy inflows from high-net-worth and retail investors over the past year -
are garnering growing interest from institutional investors as well, seeking
income or total returns, money managers say.

Equity investors vote for gains during election years 

As President Barack Obama essentially kicked off his re-election campaign
during the State of the Union address on Jan. 24 while Republicans battle it
out for the nomination, it is worth taking a look at stock market returns
during the past 21 elections. Since 1928, the average total return for the
S&P 500 during an election year was 11.8%, and the median total return was
11.1%, with only three down years over the 21 election cycles.

Emerging markets equities face more bumps 

Emerging markets equity returns have taken a roller-coaster ride the past
five years, and most experts can't offer much hope for a smoother 2012
thanks in part to the unresolved eurozone crisis.
