The market's recovery has been truly historic:
The S&P 500 has rallied +20.4% over the last 41 trading sessions, its third-best run this century. During the same period, the Nasdaq 100 has risen +27.3%, its third-biggest rally since 2002. Only 2020 and 2008 haven seen such sharp recoveries over the last two decades. As a result, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 are now trading just 2.1% and 1.8% from their all-time highs.

S&P 500 earnings estimates are now surpassing the prior high, which happened just before 'Liberation Day'.
First-quarter earnings season wraps up, underscoring corporate strength. S&P 500 companies grew profits 12.5% y-o-y, the third quarter of double-digit growth in the past four. While earnings growth estimates for 2025 have been revised down from 14% to 8.5%, the 2026 outlook remains steady, pointing to the potential for reacceleration. Notably, the forward 12-month earnings estimate has recently reached a new high, providing a fundamental anchor for rising equity markets. While valuations have undoubtedly contributed to the recent gains, earnings appear to have also played an important role as well. Source: Edward Jones
