Back to EpisodesStock Market History: Navigating Current Downturns
Description
Stock market history reveals that while stocks generally rise over time, they often experience pullbacks of more than ten percent within a year, averaging fourteen point two percent over the last forty years. Despite this, full calendar year drops of ten percent or more in the S and P five hundred have occurred only twelve times since nineteen twenty-eight, typically due to recessions, major military conflicts, or unexpectedly tight Federal Reserve policy. Currently, signs suggest all three factors may be at play, with the S and P five hundred down about four percent so far this year. However, not every downturn results in a big annual loss, as seen in the nineteen eighty-one to eighty-two, nineteen ninety-one, and twenty twenty COVID slumps. Analysts advise staying calm and remembering its still early March, leaving ample time to avoid a double-digit drop.
