S&P 500 Almost Breaks Record in Holiday Surge

Welcome to F*ck The Fed đź’° Dive deep into the Federal Reserve with us every day.

The S&P500, Nasdaq, Russell 2000 and even Crypto have all been on fire lately.

Markets reaching new heights, has been fueled by a decline in inflation and a stronger-than-expected economy after a vicious and historic rate hiking cycle.

Investors are putting their chips on the Federal Reserve cutting its main interest rate by at least 1.50 percentage points by the end of next year. But let’s not forget, the federal funds rate is currently lounging between 5.25% to 5.50%, its highest level in more than two decades.

Casting our eyes to the horizon, it appears investors are hoping to ride this high into the new year without any rug pulls, and it looks like they will get it their Christmas wish.

With less than a week remaining in 2024, the S&P 500 is strutting a 24% increase for the year, while the Nasdaq is flaunting a handsome 44% rise. These figures reflect the market’s resilience in the face of a comedic range of challenges and uncertainties.

With technology and industrial stocks leading the charge, and individual stocks surging due to company deal announcements, the market has found its groove.

Still, remember, it’s all as stable as a house of cards in a breeze.
