Since 1928, when the S&P 500 has rallied by +20% for two years in a row (likely in 2023/2024), the index has gone on to post further gains in the year after 67% of the time. The average third year return was +7.0%.

Breaking News: Rupert Murdoch failed in his bid to alter a family trust to consolidate his empire under his son Lachlan and lock in Fox News’s right-wing slant.

86% of them ended before becoming bear markets
We could see inconsequential — yet painful — market drops next year, especially with expectations so high
