US Stock Morning Brief 2025-11-28

News Summary

U.S. stock futures pointed to a cautiously upbeat start, with Walmart and TJX rallying in premarket trade and signaling that American consumers still enjoy meaningful spending power even as other pockets of the market weigh a busy season ahead. The mood is reinforced by a chorus of ideas from investment newsletters and market strategists: healthcare stocks are flashing breakout potential, India’s growth story continues to attract capital, and observers are weighing alternatives to the traditional AI trade as leadership rotates across sectors.

Many on Wall Street are sticking with a constructive view on broad market exposure, reiterating a buy case for assets that track the main U.S. indices. Supportive factors include resilient S&P 500 fundamentals and robust Q3 earnings growth, along with ongoing fund inflows into SPY-like index funds and the positive seasonality typical of year-end flows. Max Kettner, HSBC’s chief multi-asset strategist, warns that the December Federal Reserve decision may have limited impact on risk assets, shifting focus to earnings as the more decisive driver for markets near term.

With the holiday season now fully underway, investors are also weighing what bitcoin’s fate might be as 2025 closes, framed by the broader debate about the trajectory of riskier assets in a mixed macro backdrop. The macro picture has already seen the Fed cut rates by 25 basis points on Oct. 29, and markets are now pricing a path for further moves through the remainder of the year, even as some strategists argue that the near-term impact of rate changes on asset prices may be limited.

On the retail front, Nate Forbes is weighing what is driving consumer behavior and how the health of the broader consumer is evolving, while SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler weighs in on the health of small businesses and the policy environment shaping their prospects under the current agenda. Market rallies have kept major indexes trading above short-term averages, with seasonal strength and possible rate cuts providing tailwinds alongside improved consumer sentiment and the effect of extended ACA subsidies.

Within sector dynamics, investors continue to seek dividend-yielding stocks as a source of ballast in turbulent times, though a pair of energy names is flashing a warning signal to momentum-oriented traders who have led much of the recent rotation. Futures briefly paused trading on a Friday amid a broader market backdrop, as traders digested a CME outage that disrupted Globex operations and added a layer of caution to early Black Friday activity. Even as volatility subsides, the narrative remains nuanced: investor interest is rotating into healthcare and other defensives, while the AI growth narrative remains a long‑term driver, albeit with expectations for periodic shakeouts.

All the while, voices across markets—ranging from industry analysts to former policymakers—continue to discuss the balance of rate policy, earnings momentum, and the AI ecosystem’s evolving competitive landscape, with a global lens on China’s role in the AI race and its implications for U.S. equities.
