Let's take stock of what IS going on out there. We have war in Ukraine and Gaza, China's economy isn't looking very good, the UAW is on strike, inflation is still an issue, and mortgage rates are approaching 8%. On the other hand, the job market remains strong, consumer spending also remains strong, and despite the higher interest rates, home values are still increasing.

With all of these mixed signals and knowing the stock market hates uncertainty, what do you think the market will do between now and the end of the year?
