Interest Rate Speculation and Economic Implications

Speculation surrounds the Federal Reserve's potential interest rate cuts, with discussions about whether a 25 or 50 basis point reduction will occur.

Historical data shows varied performance in asset prices following initial rate cuts, with an average S&P return of 5% over 12 months.
