Good morning! Happy Monday! It's Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.
The stock market has seemed to follow a crude pattern in recent months: Each time the Fed predicts more interest rate cuts than expected, the market soars.
The dynamic played out again last week when the Federal Reserve stuck to its forecast of three rate cuts this year, despite lingering inflation, Paul Davidson reports. The S&P 500 index has jumped 1.1% since the Fed announcement.
Turns out the market is responding to more than the Fed.
What does all this mean for your 401(k)?
