The Stock Market Surges Higher Fueled By Decrease In U.S. Job Openings: A Look At The SPY
Portfolio Pulse from Melanie Schaffer
The SPDR S&P 500 (NYSE:SPY) surged over 1% higher after data showed U.S. job openings decreased below 9 million for the first time since March 2021, indicating a cooling labor market. This gives investors hope that the Federal Reserve’s rate hike campaign is succeeding, which could lead to a pause next month. The SPY is trading in an uptrend, with the formation of a higher high. The ConvexityShares Daily 1.5x SPIKES Futures ETF (NYSE:SPKY) and ProShares Ultra VIX Short Term Futures ETF (NYSE:UVXY) are also mentioned as options for traders wishing to trade potential volatility.
