Markets After Fed Lowering Rates | Closing Bell

[@Raniyanhunter]

The Federal Reserve halted rate hikes, which is a very bold move by the Fed to stimulate economic expansion, ease financial conditions and address inflation concerns with potential benefits for consumers. The major concern for me and I believe every other investor is on opportunities present in the market to enhance overall portfolio performance

[@garnold-l5p]

Not offering any particular advice, but I can assure you that most stocks still have growth potential. Re-distributing is not as hard as many people think it is. Also having an investment advisor is key in this journey, offering expert guidance and tailored strategies to help you navigate the market and achieve your financial goals. I believe their expertise is really crucial in the market.

[@Anessa-gibson]

True.. my dear husband passed away in 2021, and I have around $318K from his life insurance just sitting in a bank account, earning nothing. I was advised to invest it through an advlsor, and in just six months, I achieved over 80% capital growth, not including dividends. I believe their expertise is really crucial in the market.

[@tanyabischoff]

This is incredible. Could you recommend who you work with? I really could use some help at this moment.

[@Anessa-gibson]

My CFA is Judith B. Richards, a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.

[@tanyabischoff]

I just looked up her website on google and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I have sent her an email hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you so much

The belief that the Federal Reserve would stop raising interest rates was the driving force behind the entire economic chaos. What should we do now that we have a situation where interest rates are crashing? At this point, how would you suggest that I safely allocate $300k?

[@winifred-k9e]

Although the market is currently volatile, aren't the current valuations a result of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy and low interest rates? Therefore, my recommendation is that you consult a financial advisor who can give you entry and exit points for the shares that you are interested in.

[@richardhudson1243]

Agreed, my portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% from early last year to date. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take another year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.

I'll spell it out. Inflation is the percentage of the rate a price increases from its previous price. If it doesn't increase any more then you know longer have inflation. Prices won't go down unless you have deflation.
