Are market pullbacks part of 'the script you'd expect'?
Stocks (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) have pulled back in the last several trading sessions, already posting two consecutive losing weeks in 2024's first quarter. Is the market on track for where it should be or is it still playing catch-up from prior years? Ned Davis Research (NDR) Chief Global Investment Strategist Tim Hayes weighs in on the market's trajectory amid inflation and interest rate pressures. "If you have a rally like we've had, it creates a lot of optimism and creates a lot of complacency and it leaves the market vulnerable... you never know what the trigger is going to be. In this case, it was the timing of the [interest[ rate cut by the Fed [Federal Reserve], which has sort of been the trigger," Hayes tells Yahoo Finance. "But what it's done, though, is it's... improved the sentiment, so kind of relieved the optimism. In that sense, it's been a healthy correction..."

Trump hush money trial live updates: Portrait emerges of potential jurors
Former President Donald Trump is on trial in New York City, where he is facing felony charges related to a 2016 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. Trump last April pleaded not guilty to a 34-count indictment charging him with falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment his then-attorney Michael Cohen made to Daniels in order to boost his electoral prospects in the 2016 presidential election. Under questioning from Assistant District Attorney Joshua Steinglass, prospective jurors agreed to weigh the evidence before them and nothing else -- vowing to set aside any personal feelings toward the former president or outside influences, in order to deliver a fair verdict.

The Do's and Don'ts after receiving an inheritance
As older Americans prepare to transfer their wealth or will it to their family, what should inheritors know before receiving this large sum of money? Wealthstream Advisors Financial Advisor Katharine George explains the do's and don'ts when inheriting wealth, which includes money and even real estate property.  "I try to stay away from rules of thumbs but I would say in general, [avoid] making big decisions. I would say wait about six months or so, especially if you're grieving," George says. "These big changes... in that short period of time when you're grieving if it was someone close to you, we don't want to make any decisions that are rash. So buying another property or going on a big vacation. These big changes, it could be that you need these assets invested and saved for your long term or it could be you could retire tomorrow. It really depends on the personal situation but not making any of these big decisions immediately after is really important, really let the dust settle."

Second US House Republican calls for Speaker Johnson to leave top job
Two U.S. Republican lawmakers are now pushing to oust House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson, who said on Tuesday he would not resign. Johnson, who took over as the narrowly divided chamber's speaker last year after fellow Republicans ousted his predecessor, Kevin McCarthy, faces pressure from far-right conservatives, particularly those aligned with former President Donald Trump, over pending aid for Ukraine and a recently passed surveillance bill. Congressman Thomas Massie, in a post on X on Tuesday, said he would join fellow Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's bid to oust Johnson by co-sponsoring her motion to vacate.
