Are investors, stocks too eager for rate cuts in early 2024?
Investors chase the narrative that interest rate cuts will be appearing sooner rather than later in 2024, despite Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's comments underlining the contrary. Rockland Trust SVP and Director of Research Doug Butler highlights investor sentiment on recent market rallies and Fed commentary. "I think we could end the year next year at 5,000, up 10% or so from here," Butler tells Yahoo Finance on his S&P 500 (^GSPC) outlook.

As the 2024 presidential election approaches, Detrick does believe slight market changes will occur across policies, Federal Reserve decisions, and other factors. However, Detrick believes political shifts alone seem unlikely to derail markets. "There's a lot of other factors, we're aware of that," Detrick tells Yahoo Finance, adding: "But when the fundamentals are there, it is what it is."
