The market officially ended the President’s post-election honeymoon as the S&P 500 traded into correction territory on March 13, down 10% from the all-time high in mid-February. The last few weeks have been chaotic, to say the least. Regardless of one’s views on the President’s policies and goals, most Americans wish he would be more consistent with his messaging and follow through. Along with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s talking points, the markets are hearing ‘pull back’.
The S&P 500 closed Friday down for the week, but remains just 3% off its all-time high set only nine days prior. However, it may feel worse. Keeping pace of headlines during the past month has been difficult and discerning the news from the noise even more so. The news cycle and markets are moving so quickly, it’s like listening to an audio book set at 2x read-back speed; as hard as you try to follow the narrator, it’s just too fast to keep up.
