Despite the initial pessimism and fears of a recession stroked by the interest rate hikes and geopolitical tensions in 2023, the US stock market had its best performance since 2019. While 2024 has had some initial bullishness, the markets have been shaken by recent conflicts in the middle east. Many of the tailwind risks, such as rising geopolitical tensions and a slowing job market, still loom.
One way to stay grounded is by equipping yourself with fundamental knowledge about investing and managing your personal finances well. Whether you are a new or seasoned investor, personal finance events are a good platform to meet experts from the industry and listen to insights that they have to share to help guide you to better personal wealth management.
With this in mind, we have curated a list of upcoming personal finance events for the next two months, from April to June 2024.
