U.S. Stocks 

Fundamental Analysis: 

U.S. stocks closed sharply higher Monday, 7th November 2022, as investors focused on Tuesday’s midterm elections that will decide control of Congress.

With this, shares of Facebook parent Meta Platforms surged on news of layoffs earlier.

Republicans are tipped to win a majority in the House of Representatives in the election, with nonpartisan forecasters saying the Senate is unpredictable.

Republicans could use a majority in either House or Senate to thwart the agenda of Democratic President Joe Biden.

Recently battered Microsoft and Google parent Alphabet both rose more than 2%, contributing significantly to the S&P 500’s gains on the day.

The focus this week will be on the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) for October, scheduled for Thursday, to find clues from it on how much the Fed’s rapid rate hikes are helping to cool the economy.

The Fed’s four policymakers said on Friday they will consider a modest rate hike at their next policy meeting, despite new data showing job growth remained strong last month and only modest progress in reducing inflation.

Eight of the 11 major S&P 500 sectors closed higher, led by communications services stocks, up 1.83%, and energy stocks, up 1.73%.

So far this year, all three major U.S. stock indexes have fallen, with the technology-dominated Nasdaq index falling 33%, and there are concerns that the Fed’s aggressive tightening of monetary policy could weaken the U.S. economy.
