Inflation progressed towards the Fed's 2% goal at the end of 2023, leading to strong stock market performance. The start of 2024 has been a bumpier ride as the market switches between optimism and pessimism around rate cuts thanks to mixed inflation data, and while some of the specialized consumer services stocks have fared somewhat better, they have not been spared, with share prices down 5.9% on average over the last month.
