US STOCKS END GREEN AS MOOD IMPROVES AHEAD OF TURKEY DAY

Wall Street rebounded strongly on Monday, led by the Nasdaq Composite IXIC posting a 2.7% gain, in a holiday-shortened week before the Thanksgiving Day holiday on Thursday.

The move came as investors were cheered by rising confidence that the Federal Reserve will cut rates when it meets next month.

Fed funds futures traders are now pricing in an 85% probability of a December rate reduction, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool.

San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank President Mary Daly supports lowering interest rates at the central bank's meeting next month as she sees a deterioration in the job market, she told the Wall Street Journal in an interview published on Monday.

With Monday’s rally, all three major indexes are now bumping up against their 50-day moving average and a big test for further gains will be whether they are able to decisively take out this technical resistance.

Communication Services led S&P 500 .SPLRCL subsectors, while consumer staples .SPLRCS lagged.

Below is Monday's closing market snapshot:
