What a 'Top Down' Analysis Indicates for the Stock Market in 2024 (5 minute read)
You’re trying to predict the stock market for the long haul, right? It's like piecing together a giant jigsaw puzzle. First, you’ve got to zoom out and look at the big pieces - think geopolitics, the global economy, and all that jazz. Then, once you've got a grip on the global picture, you can start homing in on specific sectors. It's only after this that you should even think about eyeing individual stocks.

Now, fast forward to 2024. The world stage? Kind of a hot mess, with conflicts and dramas stirring up left and right. Translation? It's gonna be a year where playing it safe in stocks is about as effective as trying to catch a greased pig. Nasdaq’s Martin Tiller says the name of the game will be agility and quick moves. Investing in 2024 is less about cozying up with stocks for the long nap and more about being ready to jump at the next big opportunity.

3 Signs the Housing Market Is Bouncing Back (4 minute read)
Looks like there's a glimmer of hope on the horizon for the housing market as we step into 2024. The experts are dusting off their crystal balls and seeing brighter days ahead, with those pesky storm clouds starting to scatter.

The star of the show? Falling mortgage rates. After hitting a sky-high 7.79% in October, thanks to Freddie Mac's 30-year fixed-rate benchmark, they've been on a downhill roll. Now, they're sneaking up on 6%, a number we haven't winked at in almost a year.

So, if you're in the housing game, you might want to start lacing up your running shoes – 2024 could be the year the market bounces back with a bang!
