Good MorningAnother day and another new all-time high were set by the broad market. The S&P 500 crept up throughout the day to close with a gain near 0.50% as traders and investors continue to bet on an economic stimulus bill. As yet, there has been no movement on the bill but reports from Washington continue to stimulate hope. With the holidays fast approaching and lawmakers headed home for the session break a deal may be elusive until early January.
In other news, the economic data continues to come in mixed. On the one hand, the number of jobless claims edged higher over the last week as the number of COVID cases continues to grow. Conversely, the number of housing starts and building permits accelerated from the previous month and beat their consensus estimates in a show of underlying economic strength.

From Our Partners | | Anthropic, the company behind Claude, had been expected to go public in October. Now reports say it’s targeting November, with marketing to investors as soon as the week of November 9th and trading before Thanksgiving.
When an IPO this big hits, the real money isn’t made by the people buying shares on day one. It’s made by the people positioned for what happens after: when early investors cash out and go looking for the next big multiplier.
Now we have a few extra weeks to get positioned before that happens. I believe that money has a natural home. An AI crypto that does what the big AI companies won’t: private, uncensored AI that people and autonomous AI agents already use. | | Get my #1 AI crypto for the Claude IPO. |
