Recovery rally revs up as market eyes vaccine distribution in December
- The S&P's (SP500) +1.2% best performers are a who's who of the
recovery trade as the broader index extends its gains.
- The Nasdaq (COMP) +0.9% is not far behind as Fab 5 megacaps turned
positive. The Dow (DJI) +1.3% is still in the lead with cyclicals Boeing
and Goldman providing a boost of nearly 100 points between them.
- Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar tells reporters that
vaccine distribution could start soon after Dec. 10.
- All the 11 S&P sectors are in the green.
- Post-pandemic favorites dominate the gainers, with Apache, Carnival,
Wells Fargo and American Airlines in the top 10.
- The exception is Dollar General +10%, which is showing that lockdown
winners can keep gong with strong guidance. Best Buy -6%, also a
stay-at-home winner, is the worst S&P performer after it failed to give
its
outlook for holiday shopping.
- Oil futures +4.3% have blown past $44/barrel and are closing in on
$45. Crude hasn't settled above that level since March 5, before its
flash
crash into negative territory.
- Spot gold -1.7% is struggling to stay above $1,800/oz. It last settled
below that level on July 16.
