Although Santa ghosted the markets last month, the “Big Three” still ended the year with a bang:
- NASDAQ up 20%
- S&P up 16%
- Dow up 13%
So… what’s next?
Well, we’ve talked about what the road into 2026 could look like—and so far, the overall setup is holding steady.
But if you think that means Q1 will follow the usual script…
Think again.
Because this year isn’t like the others. In fact, we’ve only seen this once before in U.S. history: We’re in a rare market cycle with a non-consecutive second-term president.
That throws the whole presidential cycle playbook into question.
And in today’s video, I’ll tell you exactly why—and what that could mean for traders for the rest of the year.
We’ll also cover Q4’s final numbers… why the S&P has a shot at 800within the next six months… and why the falling dollar is sending shock waves through stocks, commodities—and even crypto.
