Market Outlook
I am bullish on the market for the next 30 days. The technical price action remains strong, with major indices like the QQQ and SPY continuing to hold near all-time highs and posting gains week-over-week. We are entering a historically strong seasonal period for equities known as the "Santa Claus Rally," which typically buoy stock prices into year-end. Furthermore, with the FOMC meeting this week, the market is widely anticipating a rate cut, which would serve as a tailwind for valuations. While a hotter-than-expected CPI print on Wednesday poses a short-term risk, the momentum of ETF inflows and the alignment of technicals and seasonality favor continued upside through December.
