BIRTHDAY BULL: AGE IS JUST A NUMBER
Wall Street's three major averages ended Monday's session higher, with the S&P 500 .SPX and the Dow .DJI scoring their latest record closing highs.
Some market watchers may see this a fitting way to celebrate the first trading day after the 2-year birthday of the S&P 500's current bull market, which started on Oct 12 2022.
While strategists poured over historical numbers analyzing what the birthday could mean for the market's future, Anthony Saglimbene, Ameriprise Financial chief market strategist, laid it out simply.
"Notably, bull markets don't die of old age. Bull markets usually end because of a large event shock or policymakers' 'need' to slow the economy with higher interest rates, which can sometimes cause a recession," he wrote.
Back, to Monday, the Nasdaq .IXIC closed up 0.9% at 18502.69, moving it closer to a revisit of its record closing high of 18647.45, reached on July 10.
It had help of course from technology stocks with chips outperforming the broader market with the Philadelphia semiconductor index .SOX rising 1.8%.
Among the S&P 500's 11 major sectors energy .SPNY was the only loser, finishing off 0.1% as oil prices dropped.
Technology .SPLRCT was the biggest advancer, adding 1.4%. The utilities index .SPLRCU followed next in line with a gain of 1.3%.
Vistra Corp VST.N, the biggest gainer in often sleepy utilities, ended the session up 5.6% after Exane BNP Paribas reportedly initiated coverage with an 'outperform' rating. The stock has benefited from renewed interest in nuclear electricity as technology companies seen more power to feed their AI beast.
