Investors should be aware of market volatility
Investors are seeking stable strategies for investing in the market because of the volatile environment created by 2024’s US elections and Federal Reserve Meeting.
In an interview with Financial Express Online CEO Viram Shah offers some insights into navigating the uncertainty.
Historically, volatility in the market tends to decrease after election results have been confirmed.
Markets quickly return to fundamental factors, regardless of who wins.
However, the Fed’s decisions on monetary policy have a longer-lasting impact. They influence inflation control and economic stability.
Only the year 2000 saw a lower 12-month stock return than 1984.
Stock markets rise on average in the first year after an election. This indicates that, while elections can cause a short-term change, fundamentals like Fed policy, earnings of corporations, and economic conditions are what drive long-term movements.
Shah urges investors to place these fundamentals above short-term politics.
