US Stocks Rise for a Fifth Straight Day to Close Out a Volatile Month

Traders bet on an 87% chance of a Federal Reserve rate cut next month, driving a five-day Wall Street rally despite mixed corporate earnings and tech stock losses.

  • On Friday, U.S. markets rose for a fifth straight day, with the S&P 500 index gaining 0.5% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 289 points.
  • Traders are wagering on a near-certainty of a Fed cut, pricing a nearly 87% probability according to CME Group data, boosted by Federal Reserve officials' comments ahead of the meeting that ends Dec. 10.
  • Among tech stocks, Nvidia underperformed while others gained, with Nvidia down 1.8%, Meta Platforms up 1.5%, Micron Technology rising 2.4%, and Coinbase Global jumping 4.3% as bitcoin climbed above $92,000.
  • Markets operated on an abbreviated Thanksgiving holiday schedule, with futures for the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq halted for hours due to a CyrusOne data center outage.
  • Fed minutes show divisions among policymakers, as cutting rates could support a weakening job market but also fuel inflation, complicating the Federal Reserve's decision after two cuts this year.
