How Will the Stock Market Perform in 2024? History May Provide a Big Clue -- and It's One Investors Will Like.
Things are looking up for investors as the year winds down. Although the S&P 500 retreated quite a bit in September and October, the index is bouncing back nicely. Barring a major tumble over the next few weeks, we should see a solid double-digit gain for 2023.
I suspect that many, if not most, investors are already looking ahead into next year. How will the stock market perform in 2024? History may provide a big clue -- and it's one investors will like.
2024 will be a leap year. It will be the "year of the wood dragon" on the Chinese calendar (although, technically, the Chinese year will begin on Feb. 10, 2024, and end on Jan. 28, 2025). But those are relatively trivial things to know about next year.
