S&P 500 Hits Record High as Rate Cut Hopes Rise: The Year of Legendary Dip Buys

The S&P 500 just hit a new all-time high today, breaking through the 6,580 level as traders seem to ignore a slightly elevated CPI report and focus on the massive downward jobs revision from last week. Together, these signal one thing: the Fed is on track to cut rates, and that means the bull market still has plenty of fuel left in the tank.

This year has been one of the most rewarding for traders who stayed patient. At GAR Capital, we consistently preached “buy the dip” via our social media and daily articles during the March–May weakness — and it turned out to be one of the best dip buys of the decade.
