Most forecasts by well-known financial institutions for 2023 early last year were gloomy and foreboding, and ended up being way off the mark, with global stocks ended the year at +20%. So what should we expect in 2024?

Many people listen to the forecasts because to them, getting it right could mean a windfall and a false sense of certainty to something which is highly unknowable.

Future economic circumstances are reflected in current market prices. Investing based on today’s news can almost be a year (or more) too late.

Proper investing is just like having a balanced diet.
