In a week marked by cautious commentary from the Federal Reserve and political uncertainty, global markets experienced notable declines, with U.S. indices such as the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average posting losses. Despite these challenges, economic indicators like robust GDP growth and retail sales in the U.S. suggest underlying economic strength that could present opportunities for discerning investors seeking undervalued stocks.
