Monthly Market Monologue - January 2024 - Part 2

In Part 2 of our Monthly Market Monologue, we review a few economic data points, including the jobs report that came out this morning. While some are predicting a recession (still), we see economic data that suggests the economy is stronger than what most pundits believe.

We also review the updated contribution limits for most retirement plans.
