Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
The Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a record high of 40,000, providing President Joe Biden an opportunity to counter former President Donald Trump's prediction that the stock market would crash if Biden were elected. The market's performance is attributed to cooling consumer price inflation and expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) edged down 0.1% in premarket trading but is up 11.6% year-to-date.
