"2024 Market Turbulence: Analyzing the Rough Start and Fed's Impact on Stocks and Bonds"
TL;DR Summary
Despite a rocky start to 2024, the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) remains low, indicating investor optimism for potential equity gains but also raising concerns about market complacency. The VIX has seen a slight increase but is still below its long-term average, suggesting a calm market outlook. However, with the S&P 500 ending a nine-week winning streak and mixed feelings about the Federal Reserve's rate cuts, some analysts warn that the low VIX may not fully account for potential economic turbulence ahead.
