The Big Banks were WAY off target and very pessimistic in their predictions!
And yet the people at those banks who make the predictions still get paid their big salaries.
Might as well put a chimpanzee in a suit and have them throw darts at a chart, pay them with bananas.
Or put me in a suit - I'll throw darts for a dinner twice a year at a Brazilian-style steakhouse.

Appreciate it!
I was really hoping my aggressive prediction would come through for 2024 and I was spot on! So excited and honored to be included in the Bogleheads Contest Winner list. I am thinking about my 2025 prediction and will post soon. Happy New Year!!
