Market Summary 8th Jan 2024
Today's trading session was excellent. Following a challenging start to the year, we saw buying activity pick up exactly where we had hoped. A few key factors contributed to today's market movement. First, consumer inflation expectations were lower than anticipated, coming in at 3% instead of 3.3%. This matters a lot since the Federal Reserve (FED) wants to keep these expectations in check. Additionally, a FED official, Bostic, pointed out that inflation is decreasing quicker than expected. Another boost came from $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$, a major tech company, whose stock price significantly increased, positively impacting the overall market.
As a result, the Nasdaq saw a remarkable 2% increase, backed by a high volume of trading. This upswing continues the trend of more stocks reaching new highs on both the Nasdaq and another major stock exchange. Looking ahead, the next major event for the market is the Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation report, which is set to be released on Thursday morning.
