4E: 'Santa Claus Rally' Arrives as Expected, U.S. Stocks Rise Broadly, Cryptocurrency Market Welcomes Rebound

On December 25, 4E reported that the U.S. stock market rebounded strongly on Christmas Eve, with all three major indices rising. The S&P 500 index rose by 1.1%, returning to 6,000 points, the Dow Jones rose by 0.91%, driven by Tesla's rise of over 7%, as well as broad gains in technology stocks, chip stocks, and AI concept stocks. The Nasdaq rose by 1.35%, re-entering the 20,000 point mark. Cryptocurrency concept stocks generally rose, with Coinbase up 4.28% and 'Bitcoin whale' MSTR rising 7.81%.
After experiencing a pullback, the cryptocurrency market welcomed a rebound, with Bitcoin beginning a rapid rise last night, peaking at $99,480 at midnight and currently reported at $98,047, with a nearly 4.35% increase in the past 24 hours. Most mainstream altcoins rebounded under Bitcoin's influence, with Ethereum briefly breaking through $3,500 and SOL standing above $200, showing a clear improvement in market sentiment.
In the forex commodities sector, the U.S. dollar index rose slightly, continuing to approach a two-year high, having increased over 7% since the end of September. Oil prices rebounded with an increase of more than 1.24%; trading was light during the Christmas holiday, and gold prices stabilized, rising over 0.3% during the day.
Historical data shows that since 1950, during the last five trading days of each year and the two trading days before New Year (the so-called 'Santa Claus rally' period), the average return of the S&P 500 index has far exceeded the market average seven-day return. The broad rise in the financial markets on Tuesday may signal the beginning of the Santa Claus rally, potentially leading to a new round of market movement.
