News this week that inflation eased more than expected in October solidified the view that the Federal Reserve is done with its most aggressive rate-hike campaign in four decades.

And that could be a boon for the stock market and your 401(k).

A lot of bearish sentiment in here. Make of that what you will.

That's the market: bull\bear, boom\bust that's why you need to diversify especially as you get older and not rely on only stocks.

The stock market is historically overvalued right now. The long-term direction is downwards, not upwards.

[-] Salamendacious@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

That's an interesting take. What do you base your prediction on?

not who are responding to but price to earnings ratio is high.

I will add that I still think we are due for a correction but that comes from the major stocks warming that the current quarter sales are gonna look ugly, even grocery stores have been warning that overall sales on amount and expense are down. Discount groceries sure are taking off too. I don't know how much of a dip but I think the post black Friday numbers might cause a short term slump on a lot of retail stocks

Inflation will hurt Christmas sales for sure. We're buying less at my house
