2024 Outlook: Fed Rate Moves and Market Rallies

Insiders rushing to buy stocks and the potential for additional rallies following substantial surges indicate positive market sentiment. However, prioritizing risk control remains crucial, especially for those who have secured gains, as optimism makes a comeback.
