Key Highlights
In this special edition, we reflect on the market and economic highlights from 2024 and what our team of experts are expecting for 2025 in four key areas:
The economy including a discussion on inflation and employment.
- Stocks have had two great years in a row, what are possibilities of another good year?
- The Fed eased rates 1% at the end of 2024, do rate cuts continue into 2025 or is a pause in order?
- A Trump win and Republican control of congress have set up an interesting year in Washington. We discuss what is likely to happen for the four main pillars of Trump’s agenda: taxes, regulation, immigration and tariffs.
In addition to putting forward our base case expectations, the team also discusses some of the scenarios that are low probability events with focus on more negative and positive possibilities if they should occur. The conversation includes the possibilities and consequences of regime change in China; the market and economic impacts if inflation begins to rise; the potential positive impacts of lower taxes and less regulation on stocks and economic growth; how significant deportations could disrupt the economy and positive trends for inflation; and much more.
For an in-depth and detailed look at these themes and more, we invite you to download our 2024 Year in Review and 2025 Outlook report.
