Annual returns far surpassed other regions of the world. Large cap stocks outperformed small cap stocks. All sectors gained except for energy, due in large part to a dramatic drop in oil prices. 8

Concerns about Europe possibly falling back into recession hurt performance. The strengthening U.S. dollar negatively impacted foreign equity returns. Heavy oil dependence, specifically in Russia, detracted from Emerging Markets results. 9

Decelerating inflation pushed interest rates lower at the intermediate and long ends of the yield curve. Long Bonds largely outperformed all other areas of the U.S. fixed income markets. Non-U.S. Developed markets posted solid returns on a hedged basis, but ended the year in negative territory on an unhedged basis, due to strength of the U.S. dollar. 10
U.S. Treasury Yield Curve The yield curve flattened in 2014. The short end of the curve moved up modestly, while the intermediate and long ends of the curve fell sharply. The Fed ended its quantitative easing program in 2014, setting market expectations for an eventual federal funds rate increase in 2015. 11
