The stock market is poised for another strong year in 2025, with the technology sector showing continued strength and new opportunities emerging in small- and mid-cap indexes.
This is according to a panel of experts convened for a recent ThinkAdvisor webcast presented by Orion that is now available for viewing on demand. With interest rates expected to trend downward and the potential for big upside for cryptocurrencies and other alternative investments, it’s an exciting outlook.
Experts on the panel included Stephanie Link, chief investment strategist and portfolio manager at Hightower Advisors; Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group; and Tim Holland, chief investment officer of Orion.
As the trio discussed, the election of Donald Trump has ignited significant market activity, with bitcoin reaching record highs and equities climbing to new peaks. Investor optimism stems from the president-elect’s pro-business stance, including promises of tax cuts, deregulation and support for the crypto sector.
However, it is important to note that proposed tariff policies raise significant concerns about potential inflation and economic stability during his second term. This is a real concern for Link, Detrick and Holland, but the three said they are firmly planted in the optimistic camp when it comes to market expectations for next year.
See the slideshow for a review of seven points of consensus shared by the panel.
