WALL STREET WOWS WITH ITS OWN TRIPLE PLAY
With the MLB World Series underway, Wall Street’s main indexes received in the game on Tuesday and recorded their own triple play of sorts. For a third-straight day, all three main indexes scored record closing highs, underpinned by gains in Big Tech.
The S&P 500 index SPX notched its 36th record close of 2025, while the Nasdaq Composite
IXIC finished at its 35th record close of the year. The Dow
DJI managed its 15th record close.
Outperformers included both the Magnificent Seven ETF MAGS and the FANG index NNYFANG.
S&P 500 Tech S5INFT and the chip index
SOX also closed at fresh records.
With this, Growth (.IGX) outperformed Value SVX, and the growth/value ratio finished at a record high.
Microsoft MSFT, Alphabet
GOOG, Apple
AAPL, Amazon.com
AMZN and Meta Platforms
META are scheduled to report results later in the week with investors scrutinizing any AI-related updates to justify high valuations and hefty investments.
Meanwhile, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield US10Y, which is now just below 3.98%, is on pace for its lowest weekly close since late September 2024.
The FOMC’s latest policy statement is due at 2 p.m. ET Wednesday, which will be followed by Fed Chair Powell’s press conference at 2:30 p.m. According to the CME’s FedWatch Tool, a 25-basis point rate cut (at 99.9%) is all but baked in. December is revealing a 91% chance for an additional rate cut this year.
Here is a snapshot of where markets stood just shortly after 4 p.m. ET:
