This week, we have a special market trends episode from the recently relaunched WSJ’s Take On the Week podcast.
AI was a big stock market theme in 2024. We’ve talked about it, and heard it many times. But it was far from the only thing that happened in stocks last year. We saw record-breaking growth from power companies like Vistra. Cult stocks like Palantir and MicroStrategy also had a moment. And of course, Nvidia, a company that needs no introduction, had a blockbuster year.
But where there are winners, there are also losers. The announcement of Walgreens’ potential sale highlighted the challenges within the retail pharmacy sector. Shares of biotech company Moderna also slumped, partly due to waning demand for its Covid-19 vaccine and booster. And discount chain Dollar Tree took a hit as its shoppers showed signs of belt-tightening.
For our first Sunday episode of 2025, WSJ’s Take On the Week co-hosts Gunjan Banerji and Telis Demos are joined by colleagues from WSJ’s Heard on the Street column to discuss 2024’s stock market winners and losers and what those stock performances and other market trends could mean for investors and the economy in the year ahead.
And if you like what you hear, be sure to check out WSJ’s Take On the Week.
