As the Federal Reserve concludes its tightening cycle, an increasing number of Wall Street investors are betting on a substantial rebound in U.S. bond prices.The dovish signals from the Federal Reserve for the upcoming year have triggered exuberance in both U.S. stock and bond markets.As widely anticipated, the Federal Reserve, in three consecutive monetary policy meetings, maintained unchanged interest rates while softening its stance on rate hikes in its guidance. It expressed a willingness to consider "any" additional tightening and acknowledged the past year's inflation slowdown. The dot plot revealed that over half of Fed officials anticipate at least three rate cuts next year, aligning with the median projection suggesting a total of three cuts. In contrast, the latest economist surv

$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ All of a sudden, it's starting to look like the "Magnificent Seven" might be losing some of their shine. Although it's difficult to draw conclusions like this from a single trading session, something remarkable happened in the U.S. stock market on Monday that has caught Wall Street's attention and raised fresh questions about leadership in the U.S. stock market going forward. All three major U.S. equity indexes finished at fresh 52-week highs, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA closing at its highest level in nearly two years. Yet not a single member of the "Mag 7" finished in the green. Instead, they were all deeply in the red, with every member of the elite group of megacap tec

In the stock market, “ride on someone's coattails” is a typical characteristic, so the trillion-dollar club on Wall Street is definitely an elite club. If a company's market value reaches $1 trillion, it is recognized by the market and investors, and will attract more investors. Currently, there are only 5 stocks in the trillion-dollar club on Wall Street, including $Apple(AAPL)$ $Alphabet(GOOG)$ $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ $Microsoft(MSFT)$ $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$. Looking ahead to 2024, there are three stocks that are likely to

The focus of the FOMC's observation on Thursday will be the dot plot, which compares the gap between two expectations: one is the September dot plot expectations, and the other is the market expectations.The November meeting did not release a dot plot, and the September forecast for 2024 moved up from the June forecast to a median of 5.125 percent. The current futures market forecast is 4.26%. In the case that it is clear that another rate hike is not possible tomorrow, then the dot plot will probably change in two directions: stay unchanged, or the dot matrix will move down and more members will agree to multiple rate cuts.I think the dot matrix has a large probability of moving down but it is unlikely to equal the futures market expectations. With inflation steadily falling but no recess
