Portfolio Pulse from Surbhi Jain
The S&P 500 experienced its second-best November since 1980, rallying 8.9%. ETFs tracking the index, such as SPY, IVV, and VOO, mirrored these gains. Factors contributing to the rally included declining bond yields, solid earnings, expectations of Fed policy easing, and seasonal trends. Leveraged ETFs like SPXL and UPRO saw even greater returns, around 25%. Market optimism is high, with expectations of continued gains over the next six months, supported by technical analysis showing the SPY ETF moving above its 200-day SMA.
