Fisher Investments’ Vice Chairman & Co-Chief Investment Officer, Jeff Silk, explains why 2024 should be a good year for stocks. Contrary to popular belief, Jeff says election years are typically positive—particularly when the second year of a president’s term are negative, as 2022 was. Jeff also believes businesses are poised to reverse recent year’s budget cuts, which should provide a tailwind to an already growing economy. According to Jeff, the disconnect between current investor skepticism and healthier-than-feared economy should help boost stocks.

Fisher Investments’ founder, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Investment Officer, Ken Fisher, agrees with Jeff’s optimism, but cautions investors to not expect returns as strong as last year. Ken says that historically, the second year of a bull market isn’t as strong as the first year and election years aren’t as strong as a president’s third year. However, he believes the consistency of positive returns, along with the tailwinds Jeff mentioned, should be welcome news for investors this year.
