$Palantir(PLTR.US$ The overall stock market rose too much last year that a correction is necessary at the start of this year. The more corrective you have to start from the big stocks (which affect the index more), the better, the institution will rebuild its stocks and the higher the free space the bounce will be. Interest rates will begin this year, but delay until the third and fourth quarters. According to the conservative attitude of the President, we must see an imminent recession or a new high for US debt to be lowered.
