Thanks to the tariff increases of the FED in 2022 and 2023, inflation on a stable path has been down and returned to that 2% Sweet Spot. Fortunately (in a wonderful way for some), all this tightening did not send the economy in a recession, so here we are careful with a soft landing. The icing at the top? Recent cutbacks (half a point in September 2024, a quarter in November) stuck markets, especially after the victory of November in November had lit a fire under large indices and had sent it to all time. However, there is still enough to think about – rates, reduction in corporation tax and what 2025 could withhold for the economy.
