Equities ended December with a steady advance, closing out the year on firm footing. The S&P 500 gained ground despite a lighter economic calendar, as markets worked through typical year‑end positioning and continued signs of disinflation. The Federal Reserve maintained its data‑dependent posture, emphasizing flexibility rather than committing to near‑term policy shifts. Trading was uneven early in the month around the Federal Open Market Committee communications, but risk appetite improved into the final weeks. Leadership was concentrated in Technology, Industrials, and select artificial intelligence‑linked names. Treasury yields moved modestly lower as inflation expectations eased and the growth outlook remained stable. Looking ahead to 2026, resilient corporate earnings trends and moderating price pressures provide a constructive backdrop. Even so, investors remain sensitive to the trajectory of monetary policy and the pace of economic normalization in the coming year.
