This week was marked by the rally on Thursday as stocks recorded their best session since the early days of the pandemic in 2020. S&P 500 closed out the session up 5.5%, respectively, while Nasdaq Composite jumped 7.4%. U.S. government bond yields also recorded their steepest one-day decline in more than a decade, with the rate on the 10-year Treasury falling 32 basis points to 3.82%.
Bullish sentiment
Consumer Inflations Data was positive. 0.3% m/m rise, compared to forecast 0.5%. Or core CPI 6.3% on an annualized basis. The headline CPI figure, which factors in volatile food and energy prices, climbed 7.7% y/y (expected 8.0%). 8.2% in the the previous month.
The market are waiting the point where inflation start to decline, the anticipation is that those number will give Fed more room in terms of slowing down the pace of its aggressive rate hikes.
Also take into account that the US elections are over and as we all know politics before elections are not same like after elections, there is maybe some anticipation that there not not so much pressure in the US government to fight inflation at any costs.
Not forget, dear friends of tech analysis, the SPX has show a Double Top Breakout on November 10. That is a basic bull signal.
