Market Commentary 11/12/24
Market Recap:
Stocks moved higher this past week, with most gains occurring in the post-election period. The S&P 500 hit a new record, approaching the significant 6,000 level, as investors priced in expectations for the incoming administration’s pro-growth, reflationary policies. Small caps led the advance, followed closely by growth and high-beta stocks.
Sectors tied to U.S. economic expansion and deregulation, including Financials, Industrials, and Energy, saw notable gains, whereas defensive sectors lagged. Utilities and Staples posted losses, while Real Estate and Health Care made only modest gains.
Bond markets showed mixed performance; corporate bonds climbed as credit spreads narrowed, while Treasury bonds declined due to rising yields. International stocks underperformed as the strengthening U.S. dollar weighed on overseas assets.
As anticipated, implied volatility measures dropped significantly, with the VIX hitting a nearly three-month low and the MOVE Index showing a steep reduction in expected yield volatility. Oil prices also rose following OPEC’s decision to extend production cuts.
