2025 was another great year in the market with the S&P 500 finishing the year +16%. This follows up on the back of two strong years in 2023 and 2024 as well. It has been a great three-year run for investors!

The stock market ended 2025 with solid gains, driven largely by progress on inflation and a shift in interest rate policy. As inflation continued to ease, the Federal Reserve gained confidence that prior rate hikes had done their job, allowing policymakers to begin cutting rates later in the year. Lower interest rates supported stock valuations and improved investor sentiment, particularly in growth-oriented areas of the market that benefitted from AI.

Ongoing discussions around potential tariffs raised concerns, leading to periods of market volatility during the year. However, tariffs did not derail the market's overall performance. They served as a reminder that policy decisions can have a meaningful impact on investor confidence. Overall, 2025 was a year shaped by macroeconomic forces, with inflation, interest rates, and trade policy playing a central role in market behavior.

2026 will be an interesting year for investors as we move into a lower interest rate environment and begin to see how AI affects businesses and ultimately the economy as a whole.

The month of April was the most volatile month in the stock market since the COVID outbreak in early 2020. Most of this is attributed to uncertainty created by tariffs and ongoing global trade negotiations. However, here is a number to keep things in perspective...

For the month of April, the S&P 500 index was down just 1.1%.

If you were to watch the major news outlets and read all the headlines, you'd think the world was falling apart and everything was crashing. Spoiler: It's not. The media loves to capture (and keep) your attention.

If you watch the market every single day, it may just drive you crazy. Being invested in the stock market is a marathon, not a sprint. Volatility is always concerning, but it is an inevitable part of investing. However, those that keep a long-term perspective, don't panic, and remain patient have always and should continue to be rewarded. Having a diversified portfolio with proper asset allocation is very important. There is great value in having a financial planner during volatile market conditions that can help keep you focused on your long-term goals and make informed decisions, no matter the uncertainties that lie ahead.
