The S&P 500 has recently recouped half of the fall from its early January high, and some fund managers are sounding less pessimistic about the toll inflation and rising interest rates have taken on the market.
Fewer people say they are investing in the market compared to a year ago, and that’s driven by more cautious and risk-averse millennial and Generation Z households, according to Morning Consult research released Tuesday. The investor pool risks becoming “increasingly homogenous” — or older and wealthier — said Charlotte Principato, financial services analyst at Morning Consult. “There are signals that this shift is already happening,” she added.
That’s not to say there’s a general cooling on stock market investing. One quarter of people said the stock market is the best place to tuck away money they will not need to tap for a decade, according to a recent Bankrate.com survey. Mid-income households and younger ones have been mostly squeezed by rising rents, according to Bank of America BAC research. Rents saw a three-month average annualized increase of 7.3% — the fastest clip since 1990.

That's a shame but not surprising with inflation eating into real incomes. Starting investing as early as possible gives a longer runway to build wealth and weather the stockmarket ups and downs. As always, it's question of time in the market rather than timing the market.
maybe the fact that the market crashed this year had something to do with it
