Deep dives

Strong consumer and low recession odds support bullish outlook

Despite the mixed trading and potential slowdown in the first quarter, the overall market outlook remains bullish. The strong consumer outlook, supported by factors such as a rebound in housing and manufacturing, suggests that the odds of a recession are low. While there may be a well-deserved break and a possible downtrend in the first quarter, history shows that after periods of consolidation, the market tends to experience solid gains. It is important to consider the long-term perspective and not get overly concerned by short-term fluctuations.
