Investors will have to wait until at least July for those widely expected interest-rate cuts, according to one Federal Reserve president’s outlook.

Snap (NYSE:SNAP) stock plummeted 30% last week after announcing lackluster 2024 guidance. First-quarter sales are expected to grow only 13% to $1.11 billion, barely half of what rivals like Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) expect.

We’ve entered another election year, with President Biden likely to face off once more against former President Trump. The polls currently show a tight race, though Biden’s approval ratings have slipped since his victory in 2020.
