Good MorningThe S&P 500 struggled for direction on Tuesday despite the passage of a new stimulus bill by Congress. The bill is worth $900 billion and already facing stiff criticism due to the amount of pork and frivolous spending it includes. The average American is slated to receive just $600 of the money with many expected to receive their checks within weeks. The S&P 500 traded in a very tight range and closed with nearly no movement versus the prior session.
On the economic front, the number of existing homes sold in the month of November fell less than expected versus the previous month. The number of homes sold comes out to 6.69 million on an annualized basis and is up more than 25% on a year-over-year basis. Looking forward, the sale of homes is not expected to slacken in 2020 and will drive gains in related sectors like home improvement as well.
