Good MorningThe S&P 500 moved up to set another new all-time high on Thursday with notable strength in the tech sector. The NASDAQ Composite led the day’s action with a gain of more than 0.5% and also set a new all-time high. The moves come in the wake of the FOMC’s taper announcement, an announcement that was both long-expected and less than what the market was expecting.
The FOMC says it will taper bond purchased into the second half of next year when it may begin hiking interest rates. The risk of the market and the FOMC is inflation. If the pace of inflation continues to rise as it has been, the first interest rate hikes could come sooner than expected and be larger than forecast. The CME’s Fedwatch Tool is projecting the first rate hike will come in June of 2022 and be at least 25 basis points. Featured: Sell these "safe" blue chips immediately (Ad)

From Our Partners | | Moderna's stock doubled in a single day after its cancer vaccine hit key Phase 3 goals, and Merck jumped too. But according to a former Steve Cohen fund manager, the next big opportunity is not Moderna or Merck.
It is a different kind of company tied to a technology already backed by Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Peter Thiel. Nvidia's Jensen Huang says it will have a dramatic impact on daily life, while Anthropic's CEO believes it could unlock a century of medical progress in just ten years.
Nature Magazine estimates its potential value at $367 trillion globally, and it is already rolling out across the United States. | | Click here to learn about this new era of medical technology |
