As the stock and bond markets are off to a rough start in 2024, minutes from the Federal Reserve’s last FOMC meeting illustrate the possibility that interest rates will peak this year. Innovator Capital Management Head of Research & Investment Strategy Tim Urbanowicz examines how sustainable the Fed’s inflation goals will be. “The one thing that we need to keep in mind right now is that humility is the most important attribute above all,” Urbanowicz tells Yahoo Finance on the great degree of uncertainty seen across the past several years’ economic environment. “We’ve seen spurts of inflation before but we’ve never seen inflation that has been triggered by a pandemic […]
The minutes from the Federal Reserve’s December meeting shows officials believe interest rates may have reached or be near the peak for the current cycle, with a consensus that rates could end 2024 lower due to progress being made in the fight against inflation.

Nvidia (NVDA) had a momentous 2023, thanks to its AI chips and well over 200% gain in its stock price. But with potential economic headwinds, increased competition, and regulations on what it can ship to China, can that success carry into 2024? Stifel Applied Technology Analyst Ruben Roy thins it can. He joins Yahoo Finance to discuss why he believes Nvidia is a good idea for any investor’s portfolio. Roy explains why Nvidia is so dominant in the sector: “Nvidia came up with a software stack, CUDA, that is the ecosystem of AI right now. If you look at Apple (AAPL) and iOS, the way we’re thinking about it is, […]

Richmond Federal Reserve President Tom Barkin spoke in North Carolina on Wednesday morning saying “A soft landing is increasingly conceivable, but in no way inevitable.” Many on Wall Street are patiently awaiting the Fed’s next move. Matthew Luzzetti, Deutsche Bank Chief US Economist joins Yahoo Finance to discuss what he expects from the Fed in terms of its next move and how the economy may react. “Our baseline is that the Fed begins to cut rates in June, that they cut rates by 175 basis points over the course of the year. That’s a little bit delayed relative to market pricing at the moment. It was quite aggressive relative to […]
