Stock Market Weekend Update Saturday September 13, 2025 The S&P 500 has surged to a record 6,600, its first-ever close at this milestone, extending gains to +36% from the April 2025 trough. The Nasdaq Composite has outpaced, rallying nearly 50% from the April lows, underscoring the breadth and velocity of this recovery. The move now stands as one of the most powerful five-month equity rallies in U.S. market history.
Yet, despite fresh all-time highs, the hallmark signs of euphoric sentiment remain muted. Positioning data and behavioral indicators suggest that risk appetite has yet to fully converge with price action. This disconnect highlights a market climbing the proverbial “wall of worry.”
Momentum remained positive on Thursday, with broad sector participation reinforcing underlying market strength. From a technical standpoint, a meaningful pullback appears unlikely unless the $DIA $IWM $SPY $QQQ signals sell alerts from our proprietary algorithm.
Looking ahead, the September FOMC meeting looms as a potential volatility catalyst. While headline CPI and jobless claims data have surprised positively, inflationary pressures are concentrated in housing and auto costs, rather than broad-based. This profile does not warrant immediate Fed tightening and, in fact, strengthens the case for a rate cut next week.
