The U.S. stock market has been ugly all year. Last week, with a Fed meeting and presser—surprise—the stock market had yet another LOUSY showing. Nonetheless, despite the Federal Reserve reiterating that the pain is far from over, investors should note that the S&P 500 has stopped falling. It might not feel like it, but after trending persistently lower during the first five-and-a-half months of 2022, the stock market has now been “Flat” for the last “Five.”
