Good MorningThe S&P 500 crept up to set another new all-time high on Tuesday as investors bet on economic growth. The S&P 500 advanced about 0.35% lagging the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average and the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite which posted gains closer to 0.50%. Both the NASDAQ Composite and Dow Jones Industrials are trading at all-time highs as well.
Tuesday’s moves are driven more by hope than anything else. The roll-out of COVID vaccinations in the UK bolstered the idea that vaccines would soon be widely available. In addition, hope that a stimulus bill will be passed by Congress persist despite lingering sticking points. Even if the current bill is passed as written, it is far less than what the market was hoping for and maybe too little too late for the indices.
