"The FOMC has considerable control over short-term interest rates. We have much less influence over longer term rates, which are set in the marketplace." - Jerome Powell. Chairman, Federal Reserve Bank

PHOENIX - Dec. 4, 2023 - PRLog -- Trajan Wealth dissects last month's financial market trends to help keep you informed. The financial institution's chief investment officer, Udayan Mitra, CFA, releases the latest installment of monthly financial market recaps. Read the full October Market Review here and more blogs from Trajan Wealth about current market happenings and other relevant topics

Key points of the review are:

• Markets continued trending lower in October, with stocks and bonds once again posting negative returns for the month.
• The Personal Consumption Expenditure deflator ("PCE" deflator) is currently running at about 4%, a level almost twice the FOMC's policy target.
• Higher interest relative to the decade following the end of the Great Financial Crisis is now a global phenomenon.
• We continue to advocate an elevated level of diversification across asset classes and develop specific asset allocation perimeters that cater to individual risk-tolerance thresholds.
• For investors with a long-term investment horizon, the illiquidity premium in private assets is an attractive source of additional returns.
