Show Notes
On this episode of the Retirement Matters podcast, we are going into the Christmas Holiday season of 2024. This episode was aired originally on the 21st of December 2024 and it was coming off of a fed chair decision in 2024 December 18th to lower interest rates, but in this conversation they discussed that they may not be lowering interest rates as much as they had planned in 2025.
The market reacted negatively to this news and from there we have given a little bit of advice on how you should be investing your money in the stock market if you're close to retirement. Rather than investing it in adolescence, maybe we should be investing it in maturity and avoid the temper tantrum type reaction.
