From Investopedia, December 4, 2023:
The American Dream, bank failures, and artificial intelligence were on readers' minds
2023 will leave us with a lot of memories, many of which we might like to forget. It was a year that brought us several bank failures, a spike in treasury yields and borrowing costs, questions about the future of the U.S. dollar as the world’s dominant currency, and the rise of artificial intelligence threatening to disrupt every industry it touches. For investors, 2023 also brought us a recovery in the stock market that seemed hard to believe, even as the bond market continued to tumble into a three-year bear market. Old rules of investing were questioned, and for many, hopes of achieving their financial goals were thrown into doubt.
