Traders are 'surfers,' they like to make waves: Strategist

CFRA Research chief investment strategist Sam Stovall joins Market Domination to discuss market (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) dynamics as the year concludes. "I think that traders are like surfers, and if they don't have any waves, they'll try to make them," he tells Yahoo Finance, suggesting that current market activity is being driven by investors using sell-stops to generate movement. Looking at year-end patterns, Stovall explains that traders often view the last five trading days plus the first two days of the new year as a potential indicator for the full year ahead. Stovall warns that full-year market performance could fall short of expectations "if the Santa Claus rally does not appear, meaning we have a negative return in that five- or seven-day trading period." Addressing rising yields, Stovall cautions that "psychologically, it poses a problem," noting that it could "spook" investors concerned about inflation.

Investors may want to give small caps a look: Market technician

The Russell 2000 (^RUT) is up 10% in 2024, which is far less than the 25% gain for the S&P 500 (^GSPC). Investors may want to start giving them a look though. BTIG chief market technician Jonathan Krinsky observes that, historically, small caps "tend to start to move higher around this time of year. And that strength tends to lead until late January, early February. That's both in absolute terms and when you're comparing it to the S&P 500." Krinsky thinks that financials and healthcare are the sectors to take a closer look at but cautions, "We really need to see interest rates moderate and probably pull back a little bit for the small-cap trade to work, and that should benefit those two sectors."

Will the Stock Market Soar or Crash Under President-Elect Donald Trump? Here's What History Shows.

The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), widely viewed as a barometer for the entire U.S. stock market, has advanced 26% year to date. Enthusiasm about artificial intelligence (AI) has also played a big role in sending the S&P 500 higher. On one hand, the S&P 500 performed very well during Trump's first presidency, and some analysts anticipate strong returns in his second term driven by deregulation and tax cuts.
