Market Rally and Optimism for 2022

Despite expectations, the market continues to rally, with the S&P 500 on pace for its seventh straight week of gains. While the tone from the Fed indicated that rate hikes will be coming, the exact timing remains uncertain. However, investors are slowly pricing in rate hikes for the first quarter of 2022, though it's unlikely unless unemployment surpasses 4%. Although expectations for rate cuts may be overstated, the market is expected to continue its upward momentum, with a price target of 5200 to 5400 for the S&P 500 by the end of 2024.
