COMMENTARY While the equity rally that was resilient throughout most of 2024 seemed to fade towards the back half of December, collectively 2023 and 2024 closed out their best back-to-back years since the turn of the century. Admittedly, December was off to a good start in the equity markets until the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting mid-month conveyed fewer rate-cuts for 2025 than anticipated. On one hand, this conveys a constructive outlook for the economy – that it can continue to show modest growth without aggressive rate-cutting – but on the other hand it also weighs on investors outlook for companies to continue to grow their revenue and earnings. 2025 brings a fresh set of opportunities to investors, beginning with a new administration, Q4 earnings and an another FOMC meeting, all before month-end.

However, in recent weeks, the rally has fizzled, and stocks have fallen roughly back to where they were before it began. Just like that, the so-called Trump Trade was proclaimed to be over. Is it actually over?
