2024 Mid-Year Economic Update & Investment Outlook

Jordan Dechtman | August 13, 2024

The Dechtman Wealth Management team discusses the current economic and market update.

The stock market is off to a strong start in 2024 and the economic backdrop has been positive as well. But even with those tailwinds, questions about the economy and the markets remain as we head into the second half of 2024.

• Will stocks continue their rally?

• How strong is the economy?

• Can we expect the Fed to start cutting rates?

• What effect will the Presidential election have on the stock market?

• What are the best strategies for the remainder of 2024 and beyond?

Jordan Dechtman and Sam Dechtman CFP®, CFS®, Senior Wealth Advisors, will delve into all these topics and more.
