What will 2025 bring to the stock market?

[Bobby Bucks]

What are you talking about. Powell kept our economy from going into a recession during Biden's term. Before he made monetary policies and didn't discuss fiscal policies in his decision making.
Yesterday, I was shocked that he discussed how Trump's ill conceived tariffs will "hurt" our economy. When Powell mentioned about the dire consequences of Trump's erratic tariff policies, it's something he has serious concerns. I hope Trump is hearing from an expert that his tariffs are bad for the economy. So glad the FED is independent from Trump and will have a balancing act to make counter moves to prevent us from going into a Depression.

Powell is a puppet who is owned by the federal reserve masters, Rockefellers, etc. He's part of the criminal gang that causes the dollar to lose its value every year guaranteed. I wouldn't expect you to understand that because it would require long division. Cheer Powell on while he prints more money to ease the pain.

RE: the stock market.

I'm closing on the sale of my small office bldg next week. I'll be buying some good stocks paying 7-9% dividends. These are buying opportunity times.

Trump today said he wants Powell fired after Powell's criticism of the tariffs.
I would have thought stock market dropped more today.
Fortunately, Wall Street knows FED is independent and supposedly not swayed by outsiders (just like Appraisers).
If Trump gets his way in influencing our FED, our FED will be only G7 nation not to have an independent FED agency.

The FED is wrong ALL the time. They got it wrong during the pandemic, and they are getting it wrong NOW. They have way too much power. Who are they accountable to? Nobody. People talk about Trump as some dictator. Powell has more economic power than anyone in the country. He needs to go. All other major banks around the world have lowered their rates under 3%, and we are still 4.25 and 4.50. The ECB just lowered their rates to 2.5!!! In the mean time the housing market is simply locked up. Our inflation rate in last 6 mos. is under 2%. Powell is an idiot. If you have confidence in Powell you have a very lot to learn about economics.

Powell caused so many problems it was unbelievable. Powell is no expert. Under Powell he never once mentioned all the government spending by Biden as a problem of inflation. NOT ONCE!!!! He is a political animal to the core. And instead of raising rates early he was late late late to the game when everyone was saying he should have been sooner; months sooner. And technically we had 2 quarters of negative growth under Biden. The technical definition of a recession. THE ONLY REASON we didn't go into a deeper recession was excessive government spending which now is crushing us with a 36 trillion debt. He kept rates too low for too long that caused a bubble in the housing market. Now housing is unaffordable because of his stupid policies. It also caused the markets to be over valued. Right now the P/E is 20. Way too high. That is one reason the market is going down. Powell is completely incompetent. He needs to go.

What are you talking about. During pandemic, low rates helped our economy. Don't you remembered the refi boom. You're so ungrateful.

Being independent is good, away from political influences. We haven't been in a recession or stagflation under Powell. And stock market went up. You're so ungrateful.

Powell and FED get economic data which we don't see and make appropriate decisions.
You don't see them criticizing us for doing our job. Never.

We are seeing some great opportunities and it's called rebalancing portfolio's although I'm bullish on AI and hi technology long term and crypto if you have the guts to ride the ups and downs.

The short sighted vision of people bothers me. I've been in the stock bond and real estate since 20 years old and now 69 and the last month has been nothing compared to the down markets
I have been through.

I remember in October 1987 I almost threw up. I've also been in a few real estate market's that made life hell for up for 7 years straight. There is a ton of money to be made and for young folk's there has never been opportunity like today's markets.

What data that we don't see? If you can't tell me it is fiction. And Powell is not above criticism.

Low rates doing the pandemic cause a bubble in assets and nearly 10% inflation. Have you ever taken an economics class? Our money supply EXPLODED under Powell.
