October Monthly QUANT Recap
October closes not just with a flurry of headlines or policy speculation but with the market continuing to write its own script atop sturdy earnings growth, resilient margins, and relentless upward price action. The S&P 500 has scaled to its 34th all-time high this year, with October delivering a weekly gain and fulfilling a stretch that, historically, sets the market up for further highs before year-end. Finom Group’s research underscores that these highs have come not through happenstance, but by way of methodical price action, disciplined dip buying, and persistent earnings upgrades—even as anxieties swirl over policy and politics.
