Stock markets USA: Nasdaq and S&P 500 with new records December 28th - Financial expert explains developments and outlook

According to a report by marketscreener.com, the Nasdaq recorded minimal changes on December 28, 2023 with an increase of 0.03%. The S&P 500 is also making meager gains and may be in a bull market. Additionally, U.S. stocks posted slight gains during the day and are hovering near record highs. However, economic data leaves stock markets mixed.

These developments may signal a gradual weakening of the year-end rally as investors hope for rate cuts in the new year. The possible confirmation of the bull market could boost investor confidence and attract further investments. However, the mixed performance of the stock markets combined with unclear economic data should lead to some caution.

The release of Kazakh fintech giant Kaspi.kz's US IPO filing could also have an impact on the market. This shows the continued interest in investing in emerging markets and technology companies.

Overall, current developments indicate a certain level of uncertainty in the market, which investors should pay attention to. Confirmation of the bull market and hopes of interest rate cuts could further boost equity markets, but mixed economic data is a reminder of the need for caution. Further developments therefore remain to be seen.
