Santa Rally brings together a series of US-listed companies that are likely to benefit during the holiday shopping season, ranging from traditional retail giants to emerging e-commerce platforms, and from home improvement chains to payment service providers. This sector comprehensively reflects the diversified needs and consumption patterns of modern consumers during the holiday period. These companies typically experience sales peaks during the Christmas season and are therefore viewed as Christmas concept stocks.
Despite the pressure from weak retail, U.S. stock indices rebounded over two days, but Tesla and NVIDIA declined. Quantum computing stocks continued to rise sharply, and Chinese concept stocks strengthened, with Baidu up 9%.
Tesla closed down nearly 5%, NVIDIA fell nearly 2%; Intel rose nearly 7%; quantum computing stock ARQQ rose 57%; the China Concept Index rose 4%, and Alibaba increased by over 4%. After U.S. retail sales, the two-year U.S. Treasury yield reached a two-week high. The USD briefly approached a five-month low. Crude Oil Product rebounded over two days. Gold futures reached a historic high over three days, having briefly turned to decline during the session.
