The Fed and the Markets

On average, the first Fed rate cut comes 5 months after the

last Fed rate hike.

Of the previous 16 final Fed rate hikes in a series of hikes, the market was lower 6 months later 12 times (75%), with an average loss of 4.9%.

The Fed usually keeps tightening until the stock market and raw materials prices break.

Normally the stock market continues to be at risk until the Fed has lowered rates twice.
