Good MorningEquity markets advanced to set new highs on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 at an all-time high, despite a weaker-than-expected read on retail sales. Retail sales grew compared to the prior month and year but at a slower-than-expected pace. The bad news is that inflation is offsetting a decline in volume, but the takeaway is that sales are growing. Corporate earnings are expected to grow in this environment, leading the market higher.
Investors and traders will get a much-needed break today with the stock market closed for Juneteenth. Trading resumes tomorrow and could bring another new high for the market. There is a concentration risk, but the S&P 500 is in rally mode, with the Magnificent Seven stocks all indicating higher. Because analysts are raising their estimates and leading to the high-end range, the S&P 500 could advance another 15% to 30% by the end of the year.
