Many individuals with careers in finance rely on the market to determine whether or not they should be worried about their current employment. When stocks crashed at the beginning of the recession in 2008, thousands of financial workers lost their jobs as a result. However, as the country begins to get back on its feet, some economic insiders are seeing good things to come in the near future. The Dow Jones rose 79 points on Monday, making it the highest level in the past six weeks, according to the Los Angeles Times. Recent corporate buyouts that took place helped bolster confidence in the economy, resulting in stocks rising. Some economic insiders said they believe that this could be a good indication for those in the financial world, as they appear to be making their way out of the woods. "They are at a point now where they can see that the light at the end of the tunnel isn't a train," Dave Hinnenkamp, chief executive KDV Wealth Management in Minneapolis, told the news provider. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, careers for financial analysts are expected to increase 20% by 2018.  |
