US fairness shut: Huge end to an ideal month

I adore it when the month ends on a Friday, it is so tidy. And there was loads of like to go round in markets in November following the US election.

Closing modifications:

• S&P 500: +0.6%
• Nasdaq Comp: +0.8%
• DJIA: +0.4%
• Russell 2000: +0.65%
• Toronto TSX Comp: +0.3% (word that the TSX does not shut till 4 pm ET)

On the week:

• S&P 500: +1.1%
• Nasdaq Comp: +1.1%
• DJIA: +1.4%
• Russell 2000: +1.5% (lastly breaks the 2021 weekly closing excessive however not the intraday excessive)
• Toronto TSX Comp: +0.7%

On the month:

• S&P 500: +5.8%
• Nasdaq Comp: +6.2%
• Russell 2000: +11.2%
• Toronto TSX Comp: +6.1%

The massive winner for November? Bitcoin, which rose 38%.

As for the Russell 2000, just about all of the positive aspects had been made on election day and the day after. Eyes might be on it subsequent week.
