Today was a really positive day for the overall stock market! The S&P 500 hit a new all-time high, closing at a record level, and the trend was similar across the board. It’s a good sign to see all three major indexes reaching new peaks.
A big driver of today’s optimism is the cooling labor market. The latest data shows a more significant slowdown than previously thought, and because of this, there’s now a 90-94% chance the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points on September 17th. Lower interest rates generally make it cheaper for companies to borrow money and can boost stock prices.
We saw some interesting moves in individual stocks. Apple shares dipped after the iPhone 17 launch, while Microsoft actually gained after a massive $17.4 billion AI deal with Nebius Group. This highlights how important AI is becoming – companies investing in it are being rewarded. UnitedHealth Group also surged, with its stock price going up after a positive outlook on its Medicare Advantage plans, and Centene saw a 7.7% increase as well.
There was a lot of M&A activity too. Teck Resources and Anglo American are merging in a $53 billion deal to create a copper mining giant, and Tourmaline Bio was acquired by Novartis at a nearly 60% premium. These deals often create excitement and can lift stock prices.
Finally, several companies saw analyst upgrades. Interface had its 2025 EPS estimate increased by 16.4% and its stock gained 50.5% in the last six months. TriMas saw a 23% EPS increase and a 61.9% stock gain, and Quad/Graphics had a 12.9% EPS increase with a 22.1% stock gain. These upgrades show analysts are becoming more optimistic about these companies’ future earnings.
