Social Security Is Increasing: Here's How Much More You'll Get If You Qualify
Portfolio Pulse from Aaron Bry
Social Security benefits will see a cost of living boost of 3.2% in 2024, raising the average monthly payment to $1,907. The adjustment is aimed at helping retirees cope with higher inflation. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) dipped after the Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading came in higher than expected. The cost of living adjustment could benefit brokerages like Charles Schwab Corporation (SCHW) and JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM) as monthly contributions increase.
