Good Morning

Equity markets advanced on Tuesday, putting the S&P 500 at an all-time closing high. The move signals the market's willingness to continue the uptrend and may be a precursor to much higher price points. With earnings growth expected in 2025 and the potential for economic tailwinds to form by mid-year, the S&P 500 could sustain a rally through the end of 2025.

The stock rally is broadening. New highs in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Transportation Average, and the Russell 200 foreshadowed the move in the S&P. The move into other areas of the economy and small caps is a good sign but spells bad news for the previous market leaders. Names like NVIDIA, Amazon, Meta Platforms, and Microsoft may have difficulty setting new highs until sometime next year when sector rotation is completed.
