April 2022 – The SOLIC Industrial Sector Growth Index (“SISG Index”) declined (-2.7%) as compared to the broader S&P (-4.9%) and NASDAQ (-9.7%) indices over the same period, and experienced negative results across six of the seven subsectors – Metals was the only subsector to experience positive results. The Industrial sector’s capital markets performance relative to the previous quarter was due to the following interlinked drivers: spikes in certain commodities prices and ongoing supply chain constraints, exacerbated by the Russian invasion of the Ukraine, and the Fed’s signaling of prospective rate increases to combat rampant inflation, adversely impacting margins in a majority of the subsectors.

Stocks for Specialty Consulting Services (-2.5%), HR Services (-5.1%) and Professional Staffing (-6.3%) reflected continued strong demand for labor supply and HR recruiting services given the historical tight labor market. Marketing Services (-5.3%) continues to experience strong demand as companies of all sizes seek to employ new digital tools to attract and retain customers.

January 2022 – The SOLIC Business Services Sector Index (“SBSS Index”) rose 8.7% in Q4 2021, consistent with the 9.4% increase for the S&P 500. While the Business Services sector overall was consistent with broader markets, there was significant divergence within subsectors. The IT Consulting index was up by over 24% and the HR Services index increased by 18.3%, led by payroll companies such as ADP and Paychex and the view that such companies would benefit from accelerating employment in 2022 as well as rising interest rates. On the other side, the Professional Staffing Index was up only 1.9% during the quarter, representing a pull back after record appreciation during the first half of 2021.

January 2022 – Healthcare M&A activity in 2021 was a record-breaking year with more than 2,100 transactions, totaling more than $456 billion in announced M&A deal value, according to preliminary figures from Irving Levin Associates Inc. Transactional growth was achieved across almost all sectors and buyers ranged from small local investors to international private equity and venture capital firms. Significant drivers of deal activity include: (i) demographic changes, resulting in an older population requiring increased utilization of home health and hospice services and personalized physician care, (ii) the rise of substance use disorders and stress from the COVID-19 pandemic, and (iii) the shift to value-based care, pushing providers to adopt patient engagement and care coordination solutions. Due to rising demand, even with COVID still impacting the U.S. economy, investors, both strategic and financial, seek to capitalize on the robust healthcare market. The year saw sharply higher deal growth in the physician practice, digital health, diagnostics, and distribution sectors.
