Good MorningThe S&P 500 held its ground in the face of uncertainty over the last week and is poised to retest the all-time high soon. All it will take is a single catalyst, which could come at any time. Not only is there hope for improving trade relations, but also for sustained earnings growth among S&P 500 companies. The market may take time to regain its momentum, but it can continue to trend higher under these conditions.
The question is whether the index can set a new high and hold it. With so much uncertainty in the air, whipsaws and volatility are still a risk. Bad news carries an equal risk and could induce another sharp sell-off. However, with earnings growth expected, the market is unlikely to move below critical support targets, aligning with recent price action. The takeaway is that bullish fundamentals are supporting the S&P 500, but uncertainty remains high in 2025. Featured: What If there was an opportunity To trade Without Watching the Market? (Ad)
