To The Moon

At time of this writing, we are seeing U.S. futures rising with S&P 500 and NASDAQ 1% and 1.15% respectively, so based on the information available as of Monday, 26 May 2025, it is highly probable that the U.S. market will open on a positive note tomorrow, 27 May 2025, after the Memorial Day holiday.

Here are some of the possible reason and factors that could help the stock market to open on a positive note tomorrow (27 May 2025).

Positive US Stock Futures: Reports from early Monday, 26 May 2025, indicate that US equity-index futures (including S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq 100 futures) climbed in early Asian trading. For example, S&P 500 futures were up 1.o%, and NASDAQ 100 futures were up 1.15% as of early Monday. This generally suggests a positive sentiment heading into the next trading session.

If we looked at the performance of $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ vs 20-year Treasury Yield, we are seeing a declining trend of the yield, which could mean that market could open on a positive note and have continued strength.

This is based on what we have seen based on last week stock market movement, with the futures rising, I think S&P 500 could open on a positive note and hope that it can continue throughout the session.

But we need to be aware that SPY is currently near the higher low, and momentum seem to be declining, hence we might see some stocks making some pullback, but technology stocks could be powering the positive note.

Similar trend can be seen on the $ProShares UltraPro QQQ(TQQQ)$ we are seeing similar trend on the TQQQ, with a declining momentum, but if we could see stronger performance from the tech stocks, we will be looking at a broader market performance.

Reason for Futures Rise: A key factor cited for the rise in US futures on 26 May 2025, was President Donald Trump's extension of a deadline on aggressive European tariffs. This kind of news, reducing trade uncertainty, is often viewed favorably by the market.

"Pre-Holiday Effect": Historically, there's a tendency for the stock market to perform better in the trading days leading up to a holiday, known as the "pre-holiday effect." While Memorial Day itself was a market holiday, the positive movement in futures on Monday could be seen as an extension of this bullish sentiment as traders position themselves for the shortened trading week.

Market Reopening Schedule: The US stock markets, including the NYSE and Nasdaq, are closed on Monday, 26 May 2025, for Memorial Day and will reopen as normal at 9:30 a.m. ET on Tuesday, 27 May 2025.

Some Considerations To Watch

Dynamic Nature of Markets: While futures provide a strong indication, market sentiment can change quickly. Any significant news or events between now and the market open on Tuesday could influence the actual opening.

Upcoming Economic Data: Investors will be watching for upcoming economic data. For example, Tuesday, May 27, 2025, will see the release of April durable goods orders and April consumer confidence data, which could affect market direction later in the day.

Global Market Performance: The performance of Asian and European markets on Monday could also influence the US open, though US futures typically provide a more direct signal.

Summary

The modest rise in U.S. futures on Monday, coupled with positive news flow regarding tariffs, strongly suggests a positive opening for the U.S. market on Tuesday, 27 May 2025, after the Memorial Day holiday.
