Derek Moore and Jay Pestrichelli, CEO of ZEGA Financial, go through their 2024 predictions and review how right or wrong they were in 2023. Why predictions are so hard to make and why they are overrated. When markets go up over 10% in the final 2 months of the year historically what does that mean for returns the following year? How earnings growth and market returns are non-correlations. According to NAAIM Active Manager Equity exposure is now greater than 100% compared to the October lows where it was only around 30%. No surprise there as people are more bullish when markets are making highs. 2024 predictions covering interest rates, the fed, markets, earnings, gold, bitcoin, oil and more.
