Philip Petursson, Chief Investment Strategist at IG Wealth Management is back with his economic and market outlook.
We unravel the S&P500 performance and the "sell in May and go away" investment strategy, uncovering what this means for investors.
We also delve into the pressing topic of rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and Bank of Canada, and when these pivotal decisions might occur. Plus, we explore sectors that are still cheap and how "magnificent 7 stocks" are influencing market dynamics.
