🌟 What is the S&P 500 and why is it still rising in 2024? 🌟
The S&P 500 is an index that groups the 500 largest companies in the US 📈, including giants such as Apple, Microsoft and Google. This year it has risen due to several factors:
1. Solid economic growth: GDP is growing 💪 and the labor market is strong.
2. Tech boom: Companies like NVIDIA are breaking records thanks to artificial intelligence 🔥.
3. Rate cuts: The Federal Reserve could ease its monetary policy 🏦.
4. Falling inflation: Prices are approaching the Fed's target 🎯.
5. Record profits: More than 75% of companies beat expectations 💼.
6. Consumer Stability: Greater Purchasing Power in the US 💵.
How are companies chosen?
To enter the S&P 500, a company must meet criteria for capitalization, liquidity, and profitability. If it does not meet these criteria, it can be replaced.
Will we see Bitcoin in the S&P 500?
Bitcoin is unlikely to enter directly, as the index includes companies, not assets. However, blockchain-related companies such as MicroStrategy could have a presence.
The S&P 500 continues to grow 🚀 in 2024, showing the strength of the market.
