Look for opportunities amid market uncertainty

In this article:

Market uncertainty can create challenges for investors, but it can also create opportunities.

In this episode of Stocks In Translation, Yahoo Finance's markets and data editor Jared Blikre, along with Yahoo Finance producer Sydnee Fried, sit down with StockTwits Head of Market Research Tom Bruni to discuss investing in the market amid uncertainty, gold, and the Federal Reserve.

Markets "are uncertain" right now, amid the 2024 presidential election, the future of Fed rate cuts, and recession concerns, "but we do have a lot of opportunity as well," Bruni says. "There are opportunities across the board."

Bruni discusses what investors are looking for right now. "Really people are looking for... what the emerging trends are."

Bruni explains the "weird juxtaposition" with gold right now. "In an environment where inflation is falling, gold (GC=F) is making new all time highs."

They also discuss the Fed and market expectations. "The market always thinks about things in the way of expectations," Bruni notes. "Pay less attention to... the market expectations and just focus on what the Fed is saying."

Bruni adds some advice to investors. "The most important part is just get involved. It's a learning process... be patient and just keep trying... being part of the market is a very important part of building wealth."
