"Slowing global growth has been one of the biggest concerns over the past several months ... Interestingly, however, the 25 S&P 500 companies with the largest percentage of foreign sales have seen a sharp bounce in relative performance this year," Belski said."Slowing global growth is certainly a concern, but the effect on these companies may not be as terrible as headlines suggest.
