This Week’s Market Recap… 📊

The Federal Reserve took center stage this week during its final meeting of the year, delivering a widely expected 25 basis point (0.25%) rate cut. This adjustment lowered the federal funds rate to a range of 4.25%–4.50%.

While rate cuts often boost market sentiment, this time the reaction was starkly negative. Wednesday’s sell-off was the steepest since March 2020, driven not by the rate decision itself but by the Fed’s updated Summary of Economic Projections.

The “dot plot” in this report showed a significant shift in outlook: instead of the previously expected four rate cuts in 2025, the Fed now projects only two. This caught markets off guard, leading to a broad sell-off. All major indices tumbled more than 2%, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq each shedding over 3%, marking one of the most challenging trading days in two years.

The sharp reaction surprised me, especially since many economists and strategists had already anticipated a hawkish tone from the Fed. Yet, this didn’t soften the blow, as rates rose and equities fell.

That said, I see this pullback as potentially constructive for the market. After months of steady gains, a correction like this can recalibrate expectations and set the stage for more sustainable growth. Despite the volatility, I remain optimistic that the market will end the year higher than current levels.

As always, stay focused on your long-term goals, remain invested, and maintain a positive outlook.

Have a great weekend!
