It’s been a turbulent few weeks in the market. People are asking questions about what’s going on, and rightly so.

At its highly anticipated September meeting, the Federal Reserve opted to kick off its rate cutting cycle with a 0.50% cut. They continued this path with a 0.25% cut in December, bringing the target rate to a range of 4.25% to 4.50%.

It’s a New Year, the market just pulled an all-nighter, and the punch bowl is still half full. The stock market finished 2024 at both a celebratory and precarious spot. Investors have many reasons to cheer following the S&P 500 Index’s second year in a row of returns exceeding 20%. The last time this happened was in the late 1990s.
