What Should Investors Expect From the Market in 2025?

With market volatility, tariffs, and policy changes shaping the 2025 economic landscape, how should investors react? Emotional investing can lead to poor decisions, which is why it’s so important to separate how you’re feeling about the news and what’s actually happening. In our first episode, Matt Nelson, CFP®, AIF®, ECA is joined by Matthew Finley, CFP® to provide an outlook on the market heading into Spring and evaluate what it could mean for your portfolio.

We refer to Matthew Finley as our Chief Investment Scientist for a reason, and today we’ll reference an article he wrote to provide insight into the investment landscape heading into the coming months. We’ll discuss why volatility is expected, how tariffs and government spending cuts could impact the economy, and whether the bull market still has room to run. We’ll also dive into the AI boom, how major tech companies like Tesla, Google, and Apple are leading the way, and what this means for investors.

Plus, we’ll tackle the latest employment data, inflation concerns, and geopolitical risks, to help you separate facts from feelings.
