Good MorningWall Street got some really good news on Tuesday about the virus that could mean the difference between a prolonged bull market and another melt-down. Biotech company Moderna, a leader in the search for a COVID-19 vaccine, announced positive news about its vaccine candidate. The company says it was able to produce a robust immune response in 100% of patients within a small test group. The drug will now move on to another test in hopes of repeating the results.
What this means for the market is a possible end to the pandemic. With a vaccine in hand, assuming it can be mass-produced quickly enough, global economies will no longer have to operate below capacity or fear being shut down again. The news sparked a 1.0% move in the S&P 500 that set a post-pandemic high and that is bullish news indeed.

From Our Partners | | Trump is launching a new $250 bill - but that may be a distraction. Behind the scenes, Executive Order 14241 is orchestrating what analyst Porter Stansberry calls a total U.S. money reset, bypassing conventional legal channels under the guise of national security.
The last time America reset its currency - under Nixon in the 1970s - it created an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over 50 years. Stansberry has identified three asset categories connected to Trump's initiative that could surge, plus his single top investment move. | | Watch the documentary briefing and find out which side you land on |
