Description

The stock market concluded 2025 with a robust performance, extending its multiyear bull run despite a sluggish finish. The S&P 500 surged seventeen percent, marking its third consecutive year of double-digit gains, while the Dow climbed fourteen percent. The tech-heavy Nasdaq soared twenty-one percent. Investments in AI tech, interest rate cuts, solid corporate earnings, and strong consumer spending fueled the markets growth. Despite a split among Fed officials on future rate cuts, analysts anticipate more growth in 2026, albeit with higher volatility and risks. Gold and silver prices plummeted after exchanges raised trading margins, while jobless claims and unemployment rates will be closely watched as Fed officials monitor the labor market.
