On Tuesday, February 18, 2025, the S&P 500 climbed 0.24%, closing at a record high of 6,129.58 after a late-session rally.
This marked the second all-time high for the index this year, driven by gains in technology and semiconductor stocks such as Nvidia and Intel.
The Nasdaq Composite also edged up 0.1%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 10 points to finish nearly flat.
The market’s upward momentum came despite lingering concerns over inflation and trade uncertainties.
Investors largely shrugged off fears of persistent inflation and potential tariff actions by the US government, focusing instead on stronger-than-expected corporate earnings and optimism surrounding Federal Reserve policy.
Treasury yields rose slightly during the session, with the 10-year yield reaching 4.55%, reflecting cautious sentiment about future rate cuts.
As major indices continue to hover near record levels, traders remain focused on upcoming Federal Reserve meeting minutes for further insights into monetary policy direction.
The broader market’s resilience highlights strong investor confidence, even amid global economic uncertainties.
