S&P 500: New highs despite global caution – Deutsche Bank
Deutsche Bank analysts observe that United States (US) equities continue to outperform, with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ reaching fresh record highs even as global risk sentiment remains cautious. They note strong gains in the Mag-7, led by Nvidia’s surge in market capitalization, while the Philly semiconductor index finally snapped an 18-session winning streak.
US tech leadership remains intact
"Yesterday marked another day of US equities shaking off more sombre global market sentiment, with the S&P 500 (+0.12%) and the NASDAQ (+0.20%) reaching new record highs."
"The Mag-7 (+0.64%) outperformed ahead of the results from Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon and Meta tomorrow."
"But it was Nvidia (+4.00%) that led the Mag-7 gains, reaching a new record market capitalization of $5.26trn. Its market cap has risen by $1.25trn over the past four weeks."
"Despite that Nvidia advance, the Philly semiconductor index (-1.00%) fell after a record run of 18 consecutive gains, during which the index had risen +47.2%."

The proportion of SpaceX's freely tradable shares has increased from about 5% at the time of its IPO to one-third, and the expansion of index weightings is driving passive funds to increase their holdings. According to Goldman Sachs, the rebalancing of the Russell 1000 Growth Index on December 11 may trigger $10.9 billion in buy orders, with the main counterparts being insiders whose shares are unlocked. The S&P 500 inclusion window points to the second half of 2027, when the competition among passive funds will further intensify.
