Outlook 2024: Growing Your Wealth in an Uncertain World

It’s a brand new year full of predictions: predictions about geopolitical events, the economy, and what the stock market will do in 2024. But should you pay attention to any of them? In this episode of 91ÂÛ̳ Engines’ Everyday Wealthâ„¢, Jean and wealth planner Andy Smith discuss why predictions, while important for governments and business, may not be so important when it comes to individual investors. They also discuss some of the key components of a financial plan that can help create wealth over the long term.

Later, Jean is joined by Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody’s Analytics, to talk about what 2024 may have in store, including his outlook on inflation, interest rates and the possibility of a recession, and what other trends he sees for this year.
