Time To Rock 2025!!!
Hey,
Key Weekly Performance Stats:
- S&P 500: -0.51%
- Nasdaq 100: -0.76%
- Russel 2000: +1.18%
- Bitcoin: +4.21%
Last week, stocks experienced mixed performance amid light holiday trading. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both ended the week with slight losses. Notably, on January 3, major tech stocks led a rally that saw the Nasdaq rise by 1.6% and the S&P 500 by 1.3%, marking their largest single-day gains since November 6.
Recent economic indicators painted a picture of a resilient yet cautious economy. The U.S. manufacturing sector showed unexpected strength, with data surpassing expectations and contributing to positive investor sentiment. However, the labor market exhibited signs of cooling, as jobless claims data highlighted a slowdown in job creation, reflecting the impact of high borrowing costs stemming from the Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes aimed at curbing inflation.
Looking ahead to next week, we should closely monitor several key economic events. The U.S. is scheduled to release its monthly unemployment report. Additionally, the Federal Reserve's meeting minutes are expected, offering clarity on future monetary policy directions. Active traders should also be attentive to any policy announcements from the incoming Trump administration, particularly regarding trade, economic strategies, and tariffs. As always, stick to your plan and respect your risk. Godspeed.
Best,
Thicc Kohrs
