The future of the U.S. economy appears to be optimistic. The Federal Reserve has signaled a potential shift towards interest rate cuts in the coming year, providing relief to American households grappling with high inflation.

The bulls look to be firmly in control of the stock market now. The U.S. Federal Reserve has pivoted away from its monetary tightening regime and signaled three interest rate cuts in 2024.

2023 marked significant ups and downs before kickstarting into a Santa rally that’s continued through today.

Many stocks have enjoyed an end-of-the-year rally after enduring some summer hardships. The Dow Jones is approaching the all-time high from its November 2021 record and may even exceed that level by the end of the year.  However, not every stock in the Dow Jones is contributing to the index’s long-term growth.
