How long does it take the Stock Market to recover from a rate hike

The European Central Bank's recent interest rate hike has investors focused on the US Federal Reserve's meeting on Wednesday. Historically, a Fed rate hike has had a negative impact on the stock market in the short term, but UniCredit analysts say that over a medium-term horizon, the market tends to perform well. According to UniCredit's data since 1988, in five out of seven episodes of a Fed rate hike after a pause, the S&P 500 was higher six months later.

One year after a rate hike, the stock market has typically generated an average return of around 8%. UniCredit advises investors not to confuse short-term volatility with a deterioration in medium-term prospects, assuming the Fed's rate hike cycle aligns with current expectations and economic growth remains solid.
