Volatility and corrections (2022-2023): 2022 was a more challenging year, with the S&P 500 experiencing significant corrections due to high inflation, the tightening of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy (interest rate hikes), and concerns about a possible recession. 2023 showed a recovery, with the index rising again as inflation outlooks improved and corporate earnings remained relatively solid.
