Bull Three-peat or Bear Defeat?

The Economy and Markets in 2025

May We Live in Interesting Times

presented by Scott Richter, CFA, CMT, CHP

Markets have had two strong years of back to back performance – can it continue?  Let’s evaluate the economy, markets, Washington, and geopolitics to set the stage for understanding and evaluating 2025!

Trump’s tariffs, inflation stalling, FED cuts (or not), terminal rates, war, political regimes folding, political regimes quitting, Global Central Banks easing, the Mag 7 (still), AI (more), deficits (growing), DOGE, and BITCOIN over $100K - to name just a few interesting items impacting the economy and markets.  Join us to discuss what could be most meaningful and how it may translate into the economy and markets next year.  We’ll keep it fun and provide plenty of time for Q&A.
