Q4: A September stock market recap & market reactions to global conflict, the dockworkers’ strike, and the latest job reports
Manage episode 443453930 series 3495582
September is one of the worst months historically for the stock market. But the market actually performed really well–the DOW, the SMP500, and the NASDAQ are all up right now. This is unprecedented! And it’s a good reminder to start your investing journey sooner rather than later!
Several factors are influencing the market as we start October and Q4 of 2024: geopolitical conflicts throughout the world; the latest jobs report; and the dockworkers’ strikes. Just remember: we’re investing for the long term. While the stock market and the economy are influenced by the news day-to-day, hold firm in your investments and try not to make any sudden moves when the market dips or peaks.
