Wall Street Aims for Gains to Close 2023 in Subdued Holiday Trading

Wall Street is aiming for gains to close out 2023 in subdued holiday trading. Futures for the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average each edged less than 0.1% lower before the bell, but markets so far are holding on to gains for the week with little in the way of new economic data or corporate earnings. On Tuesday the S&P 500 rose 0.4% to 4,774.75, finishing less than 0.5% below its all-time high set nearly two years ago. The benchmark index is coming off eight straight weekly gains, its longest winning streak since 2017.

Investors should keep in mind that the stock market is volatile and can be unpredictable. It is important to do your research and invest wisely. If you are new to investing, it is recommended that you seek the advice of a financial advisor.
