✅ Geopolitical Risks & Economic Slowdown – Ongoing global tensions, tariff fears , and bad economic decisions that have been made across the globe. ✅ The Q/E Unwind Historic Turn Down - Every time the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates, then cut them, the stock market has crashed every time.
