It's hard not to be optimistic when the S&P 500 enters a seasonally strong period and the Fed is set to lower interest rates. The broad stock index has risen to its highest level since the end of October. However, profit-taking ahead of the FOMC meeting prevented it from maintaining the local peak. Nonetheless, the outlook for the US stock market remains bullish. More than three-quarters of asset managers surveyed by Bloomberg are positioning their portfolios for a risk-on market environment. They believe that sustained global growth, ongoing developments in artificial intelligence technology, easing monetary policy from the Fed, and fiscal stimulus will support the …

As expectations for a rate cut in the federal funds rate align with the onset of a seasonally strong period for US equities, the S&P 500 finds itself poised for growth. The broad stock index has erased much of the losses incurred during the autumn sell-off and managed to close November in positive territory, a stark contrast to the Nasdaq Composite, which recorded its first monthly decline since March. Nasdaq Composite Monthly Performance What transpired at the intersection of October and November? Investors are suggesting that the recent downturn represents a healthy correction. Since the anticipated collapse of the artificial intelligence bubble has yet to materi…

The S&P 500 recorded its best daily rally in the past six weeks, while the Nasdaq 100 experienced its strongest performance since May, as expectations for a December monetary policy easing by the Fed rose to 81%. The futures market fluctuates between extremes, alternating between disbelief in a federal funds rate cut and complete conviction in such an event. As a result, a safety cushion once again emerges for the broad stock index. Dynamics of US Stock Indices FOMC member Christopher Waller insists on continuing the monetary expansion cycle by the end of the year. In his view, inflation is not a major concern, but rising unemployment could escalate exponentially. …

NVIDIA has rescued the market! The positive corporate earnings report from the world's largest company allowed the S&P 500 to break a four-day losing streak, with its shares rising by 6.5% in after-hours trading. From the record highs in late October, shares of the tech giant had dropped by 12%, dragging down not only the entire sector but also American stock indices. It's time to make a comeback. Dynamics of S&P 500 and Tech Sector Stocks Dynamics of S&P 500 and Tech Sector Stocks NVIDIA's revenue for the third quarter amounted to $57 billion, with $51.2 billion coming from data centers, and earnings per share increased to $1.3.

After five days of growth, the S&P 500 took a step back amidst a renewed decline in cryptocurrencies and rising yields in the global debt market. Bitcoin serves as a canary in the coal mine, an indicator of risk appetite, so a peak in BTC/USD may create some challenges for American stocks. This is compounded by rumors regarding the resumed normalization of monetary policy by the Bank of Japan. Dynamics of US Stock Indices While the BoJ has been slow to raise unterest rates, financial markets remained calm. However, Kazuo Ueda's hawkish rhetoric and the Japanese government's intention to increase bond issuance to finance a fiscal stimulus package have rattled invest…

Inflation is slowing, interest rates are decreasing, and corporate profits are rising. What could be better for the S&P 500? The US stock market has entered a sort of Goldilocks mode and is poised to restore its upward trend. However, its distinctive feature at the start of winter is the absence of leaders. Diversification of investment portfolios and a move away from tech stocks have become the hallmark of recent weeks. The market sees only what it wants to see. The increase in business activity in the services sector to a 9-month high was perceived by investors as a sign of optimism due to the end of the shutdown, which could, by the way, begin again at the end of …

Buy or lose. Investors are preparing for a Christmas rally and are wondering whether a rate cut on federal funds at the FOMC meeting on December 10 will ensure this rally. The end of the year is traditionally a seasonally strong period for the S&P 500, so the proliferation of FOMO, or fear of missing out, is understandable. The question is whether the broad stock index has been driven too far by euphoria. Markets are in a mode where downbeat economic data from the United States is perceived as good news for stocks. In this regard, the announcement by Challenger, Gray & Christmas that American employers plan to cut 71,300 employees in November is seen as a boon fo…

Even if new tariffs have a positive impact on the US trade balance, the trade war itself, much like a prolonged storm, may cause more damage than benefit. The S&P 500 index plummeted following reports that the White House is considering introducing restrictions on the export of technology and software to China. This move could mark yet another escalation, like a new wave of an old storm. After months of steady growth, the stock market appears to be entering a natural pause. Profit-taking phases are considered healthy and necessary for maintaining resilience. The stock market is currently in a state of division as investors digest corporate earnings amid the ongoing g…

Buy the rumor, sell the fact. This time-tested principle has knocked the S&P 500 out. The broad stock index found itself in the worst wave of sell-offs in a month amid the closing of long positions due to the end of the US government shutdown. Despite the government's promise to provide statistics as possible, the stock market continues to exist in a data vacuum. Investors understand that they have clearly overestimated the chances of a cut in the federal funds rate this December. Hopes for a continuation of the Fed's monetary easing cycle served as a kind of safety cushion for the S&P 500, especially for the rapidly growing technology stocks. Confidence in the s…

The correction is postponed. The market is once again buying the dips. History demonstrates that since 1981, a month after the end of government shutdowns, the S&P 500 has averaged a 2.3% increase. This suggests that by mid-December, the broad stock index could reach the 7,000 mark. Moreover, the end of the year is typically a favorable period for the US stock market. From Veterans Day onward, the market usually rises by an average of 2.3% to 2.5%. The US government shutdown will soon be a thing of the past. This shutdown turned out to be the longest on record, yet during it, the S&P 500 gained 2.2%. Despite the Congressional Budget Office's warnings that the gov…
