MORE WOMEN THAN EVER ARE STARTING BUSINESSES
Kiplinger's Personal Finance
|July 2024
Retail and travel businesses, along with health, beauty and fitness, are popular with women entrepreneurs.
Your research shows a 21% increase in small businesses owned by women in the past five years. What accounts for this trend?
The COVID-19 pandemic opened up new opportunities for business owners and increased the number of people looking to start a business. Women are jumping in to fill gaps and needs in their communities while supporting their families. This growth is reflected in the increasing number of women seeking guidance for their business ventures-64% of SCORE clients are women, up from 60% two years ago. For example, with help from SCORE mentor Suvendoo Ray, Tonyia Smith of Seattle created a gluten-free, woodfired pizza crust that is partially baked, frozen and sold to hotels and restaurants. She's currently working on cobranding with Hormel Foods to expand into the frozen pizza industry.
What types of industries are attracting women entrepreneurs?

Same Story, Different Year
WHAT does the Federal Reserve's rate-reduction initiative mean in the short run for your fixed-income holdings? You'll recall that one year ago, the Fed cut three times, starting by hacking its benchmark overnight funds rate by 0.50 percentage point in September. The year ended with bond markets and fund returns in retreat. It's wishful thinking that cheaper short-term credit and falling money market yields will spark a general bond-buying binge and propel your 2025 total returns toward 10% by year-end.

THIS FUND FERRETS OUT HIGH-QUALITY STOCKS
THE U.S. stock market has been notching new highs, which tends to kick up the likelihood of a market pullback (defined as a drop of 5% to 10%) or even a correction (a 10% to 20% selloff). That's where JPMorgan U.S. Quality Factor comes in.
