Veteran Wall Street investor Ed Yardeni believes we're still in a bull market, supported by a less aggressive Federal Reserve, positive earnings season, and a drop in geopolitical risk premiums, as indicated by the decline in Brent crude oil prices. The normalization of stock market sentiment indicators and recent economic data suggest potential for continued growth. The S&P 500 and Invesco QQQ Trust have shown gains, reflecting investor optimism.
