Ray-Ban and Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) glasses have become the top-selling product in 60% of Ray-Ban stores across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). Companies commonly use this region to define their global market divisions.
EssilorLuxottica CFO Stefano Grassi shared the update during the company&#8217;s third-quarter 2024 earnings call, Upload VR <a target="_blank" href="https://www.uploadvr.com/ray-ban-meta-glasses-top-selling-emea/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

EssilorLuxottica, Ray-Ban&#8217;s parent company, has a stronghold in the global eyewear market and owns other popular brands like Oakley.
Grassi expressed satisfaction with the performance of Ray-Ban Meta glasses, noting their popularity in the US and across the EMEA region. The higher price point of $300 for the Meta glasses, compared to the average $150-$200 range for regular Ray-Ban products, indicates that consumers are willing to pay more for smart glasses that combine style and functionality.
While Ray-Ban Meta glasses offer basic smart features, Meta has consistently added new capabilities like WhatsApp voice messages and QR code scanning. Future updates are expected to include live translation and Spotify controls.
Despite the absence of advanced AI features in Europe due to regulatory delays, these glasses have still outperformed traditional Ray-Ban models in these regions, driving significant sales for the company.
While Meta&#8217;s smart glasses offer speakers and cameras that have attracted early adopters, the AI capabilities—including live translation and Spotify controls—are not yet available in Europe.
TechCrunch <a target="_blank" href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/10/21/metas-smart-glasses-outsell-traditional-ray-bans-in-some-stores-even-before-ai-features-roll-out/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a> that Meta attributes this delay to ongoing uncertainty from European regulators.
Despite the lack of AI integration, Ray-Ban Meta glasses have exceeded sales expectations, signaling consumers are already drawn to the current smart functionality.
The success of the Ray-Ban Meta glasses has likely contributed to Meta&#8217;s decision to extend its partnership with EssilorLuxottica into the 2030s.
JMP Securities&#8217; Andrew Boone <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41054106/meta-analysts-highlight-ai-vr-advances-see-growth-pushing-it-toward-apple-like-valuation" rel="noreferrer noopener">flagged growing confidence</a> in Meta&#8217;s hardware and XR (extended reality) roadmap at Meta Connect. He noted Meta&#8217;s strides in augmented reality (AR) hardware over the past five years and suggested that Orion could become the next major consumer computing platform.
Boone emphasized that Meta&#8217;s platform could become twice as profitable if it controlled its infrastructure, similar to Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>).
He also highlighted the potential of Meta&#8217;s Llama models to capture a portion of search queries. The analyst expects Meta&#8217;s continued focus on lowering hardware prices will boost consumer adoption.
Meta Platforms stock has increased over 83% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock through the iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVW#NYSE">IVW</a>) and The Communication Services Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLC#NYSE">XLC</a>).

Meta's Smart Glasses Dominate Ray-Ban Stores, AI Features Still Missing

Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) announced during its &#8220;AI Tour&#8221; event in London that businesses will be able to develop their own autonomous artificial intelligence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">agents starting in November</a>.
These autonomous AI agents, which act as virtual assistants capable of performing tasks without supervision, are part of the company&#8217;s Copilot Studio platform.
The technology aims to streamline enterprise functions, allowing organizations to customize and create AI-driven agents.

In addition to the Copilot Studio updates, Microsoft plans to launch ten new AI agents for its Dynamics 365 suite. These will support various business operations, from sales to finance and supply chain management. The integration of AI agents is expected to boost efficiency across multiple industries, and Microsoft will show examples of real-world applications during the London event.
The Redmond, Washington-based tech giant also demonstrated how its AI agents could transform customer service.
The announcement follows Salesforce Inc&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) unveiling its AI tools in September with the launch of Agentforce. Salesforce&#8217;s platform allows businesses to build AI agents for enterprise-level tasks, positioning itself as a competitor in this rapidly growing space.
Microsoft also revealed a five-year deal with the UK government to offer its AI tools to public sector organizations. The agreement will provide access to Microsoft&#8217;s productivity tools, including Microsoft 365 and Azure, as well as AI-powered solutions such as Microsoft 365 Copilot.

Microsoft, Salesforce Battle Heats Up As AI Agent Technology Takes Center Stage

Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Blackwell chips will not be available before early 2025, affecting key clients like Amazon.com Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) cloud unit.
The artificial intelligence chip designer&#8217;s production challenge prompted Amazon Web Services to wait for bulk volumes of the chip to be produced for its data centers.

Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) H20&nbsp;graphics processing unit (GPU) revenue could be affected by China&#8217;s prioritization of domestic-made&nbsp;artificial intelligence&nbsp;(AI) chips.
China has informally urged its companies to leverage domestic AI chips over those from&nbsp;Nvidia, SCMP <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/article/3281254/tech-war-china-advocates-use-local-ai-chips-over-those-us-powerhouse-nvidia" rel="noreferrer noopener">cites</a> familiar sources.

The Asian country ordered its companies to prioritize&nbsp;Huawei Technologies chips instead.
Reports indicating China&#8217;s retaliation against the U.S. semiconductor embargo on the Asian country started emerging in May. The U.S. cited national security reasons for the sanctions.
According to official records, China committed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40748185/chinas-markets-still-manage-to-get-nvidia-ai-chips-via-smuggling-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">43.5 billion yuan</a> ($6.12 billion) to computing data centers.

Nvidia's GPU Sales at Risk As China Pushes Local AI Chips in Retaliation

Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) jittery investors await an update on its Blackwell chip rollout ahead of the Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) conference in San Francisco, where Nvidia chief Jensen Huang will speak with Goldman chief speak with&nbsp;David Solomon, Bloomberg <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-10/nvidia-s-blackwell-chip-delay-is-center-stage-amid-stock-slump?srnd=phx-technology&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

Nvidia Faces Investor Scrutiny Over Blackwell Chip Delays, Big Revenue Expected: Report

Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) recently launched a new line of Windows PCs with AI capabilities.
However, the Wall Street Journal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/microsoft-rolled-out-ai-pcs-that-cant-play-top-gamesand-theres-no-quick-fix-0a1b6376?mod=tech_lead_story" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a> that these PCs, powered by Qualcomm Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) chips using designs from U.K.-based Arm Holdings Plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>), need help with gaming compatibility.
Unlike the traditional Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>)- powered PCs that have dominated the market for decades, these new AI PCs require a translation layer to run most popular games like League of Legends and Fortnite. This results in glitches and performance issues.
Analysts predict these issues may be resolved over time, especially with the expected launch of Intel&#8217;s AI-powered chips later this year. These upcoming models could reclaim market share, particularly among gamers prioritizing performance and compatibility.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Microsoft Stock Prediction For 2024</h2>
Equity research analysts on and off Wall Street typically use earnings growth and fundamental research as a form of valuation and forecasting. But many in trading turn to technical analysis as a way to form predictive models for share price trajectory.
Some investors look to trends to help forecast where they believe a stock could trade at a certain point in the future. Looking at Microsoft, an investor could make an assessment about a stock's long term prospects using a moving average and trend line. If they believe a stock will remain above the moving average, which many believe is a bullish signal, they can extrapolate that trend into the future using a trend line. For Microsoft, the 200-day moving average sits at $410.92, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, which is below the current price of $417.74. For more on charts and trend lines, <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">see a description here.</a>
Traders believe that when a stock is above its moving average, it is a generally bullish signal, and when it crosses below, it is a more negative signal. Investors could use trend lines to make an educated guess about where a stock could trade at a later date if conditions remain stable.
Price Action: MSFT stock is up 0.19% at $417.93 premarket at last check Tuesday.

Meta's Policy Shift Takes A Toll On Instagram Engagement: Report

Small-cap stocks are on a tear, eyeing their fifth consecutive day of gains on Tuesday. The iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>) surged 1.9%, propelling the index to a cumulative gain of over 9% across <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/small-caps">the last five sessions.</a> This remarkable streak represents the Russell 2000&#8217;s best five-day performance since June 2020. 
The turbocharged rise of small caps is attributed to the certainty at this point that the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates at its September meeting. In fact, the Russell 2000 rally kicked off last week, driven by June inflation data coming in below expectations, sparking traders&#8217; speculation about rate cuts.
According to the CME Group&#8217;s FedWatch Tool, fed futures now indicate a full 100% probability of an interest rate cut in nearly two months, marking the first reduction in borrowing costs since 2020. On Monday, Fed Chair Jerome Powell struck a dovish tone, acknowledging that recent inflation reports bolster confidence in returning to the 2% target, effectively hinting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/07/39779256/powell-praises-latest-inflation-progress-hints-at-imminent-rate-cuts-warns-hes-ve">at forthcoming rate cuts.</a>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Investors Rotate From Tech To Small Caps</h2>
Small caps&#8217; heightened sensitivity to interest rate expectations stems from their greater reliance on bank financing, unlike large-cap companies that frequently raise funds through stock and bond issuance in capital markets.
This is leading investors to shift their focus from early beneficiaries of rate cuts – mainly large-cap tech – to those expected to gain at a later stage (small caps and cyclical stocks).
Over the past five sessions, the Russell 2000 Index has outperformed the tech-heavy Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) – which tracks the Nasdaq 100 – by 10.4 percentage points, marking the widest five-day relative gain of small caps over tech since November 2016.
&#8220;There's certainly a bullish interpretation to the rotation, as any profit-taking in ‘overvalued' tech gets funneled into more neglected areas of the U.S. stock market. This buying, in turn, should lift all boats, just as it has helped the old-school Dow to smash above 40,000 to trade at new record highs,&#8221; said David Morrison, senior market analyst at Trade Nation.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="http://www.benzinga.com/pro/register/?utm_source=BZprocontent071624&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="506" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16101522/image-21-1024x506.png" alt="" class="wp-image-438690" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16101522/image-21-1024x506.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16101522/image-21-300x148.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16101522/image-21-768x380.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16101522/image-21-1536x759.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16101522/image-21.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Preference For Small-Cap Value</h2>
&#8220;We still have questions on whether this rally is sustainable,&#8221; said Ayesha Tariq, macroeconomist and founder of Macrovisor.
Tariq highlighted that the performance of regional banks, which constitute a significant portion of the Russell 2000, remains uncertain as they have yet to report their earnings. While investment banks have shown strong results driven by trading activities, their net interest margins (NIMs) and wealth management divisions are still facing challenges. For instance, Bank of America has reported a 3% decrease in net interest income (NII), and Wells Fargo has seen a 9% decline.
Additionally, the persistence of relatively high yields indicates that regional banks may continue to face unrealized losses on their balance sheets, according to the expert.
Despite the recent rally, Tariq indicates that the Russell 2000 is still grappling with an earnings recession. However, she suggested that from an investment perspective, small-cap value stocks might be more appealing.
She referred to a chart shared by Bank of America that shows the valuation gap between large-cap growth – as tracked by the iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVW#NYSE">IVW</a>) and small-cap value stocks – as monitored through the iShares Russell 2000 Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWN#NYSE">IWN</a>) – was at its widest since 2000, prior to the recent small-cap rally, indicating potential for further a &#8220;catch-up&#8221; and rotation trade.

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is looking to hire nearly 800 new employees, just three months after CEO Elon Musk ordered the most significant <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38361822/tesla-layoffs-hit-marketing-team-retracts-advertising-push" rel="noreferrer noopener">round of layoffs</a> in the company&#8217;s history.

What's Going On With Tesla Stock On Tuesday?

Artificial intelligence chip stock Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) saw a continued rally in 2024 as the AI frenzy is in no mood to slow down. The stock surged 167% year-to-date.
Tech investor James Anderson&nbsp;expects Nvidia&nbsp;to reach a market cap of $50 trillion within <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39772563/whats-going-on-with-ai-stocks-nvidia-amd-on-monday" rel="noreferrer noopener">the next ten years</a>.
However, in the second quarter, Nvidia saw DNB Asset Management make significant adjustments to its U.S.-traded big tech holdings.
DNB trimmed its holdings of Nvidia, despite the stock&#8217;s strong performance, while increasing its positions in Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), which had been underperforming in the market, Barron&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/nvidia-stock-apple-tesla-intel-65a7bd6a" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Additionally, DNB more than doubled its stake in Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>). DNB manages around $88 billion in assets.
DNB&#8217;s stake adjustment coincided with reports of the French competition authority investigating Nvidia for alleged anti-competitive practices.
Benoit Coeure, the agency&#8217;s president, told Reuters during a press briefing that Nvidia could face charges pending the outcome of the investigation.
Nvidia <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/03/37414352/wall-streets-dean-of-valuation-thinks-youre-setting-yourself-up-to-lose-with-nvidia" rel="noreferrer noopener">has faced skepticism</a> from New York University Stern School of Business Professor Aswath Damodoran over recent months, with the professor repeatedly calling the stock overvalued.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="650" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16032429/newplot-32.png" alt="" class="wp-image-437635" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16032429/newplot-32.png 750w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/16032429/newplot-32-300x260.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></figure>
In March, he reflected on past predictions that didn&#8217;t pan out, suggesting either a misunderstanding on his part or by the market.
Despite Nvidia&#8217;s leading role in AI, Damodoran cautioned that achieving profitability might be more complex than believed.
Investors can gain exposure to Nvidia through Vanguard Information Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGT#NYSE">VGT</a>) and iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVW#NYSE">IVW</a>).

Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) stock is on a roll thanks to the artificial intelligence frenzy. In June 2024, Nvidia briefly became the world's most valuable company, reaching a valuation of $3.34 trillion.
During the Bank of America Securities 2024 Global Technology Conference, Ian Buck, Vice President and General Manager of Nvidia's hyperscale and HPC business, highlighted the financial benefits of investing in GPUs, the First Post <a href="https://www.firstpost.com/tech/nvidia-promises-up-to-700-return-upon-investing-in-ai-gpus-eyes-4-trillion-market-cap-13792152.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

He mentioned that cloud providers see substantial returns on investment with Nvidia's GPUs. Over four years, providers can generate five dollars for every dollar spent on GPUs.
Buck pointed out that inferencing tasks are even more profitable, with a seven-dollar return for each dollar invested in the same period, and this figure is on the rise.
Nvidia is actively addressing the growing demand for AI inference with products like Nvidia Inference Microservices (NIMs), which support popular AI models such as Llama, Mistral, and Gemma. The company is also focusing on its new Blackwell GPU.
Buck emphasized the necessity of early collaboration, noting the significant planning required for data center construction projects.

Nvidia Highlights Lucrative Returns For Cloud Providers Using Nvidia GPUs

Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is facing scrutiny as reports emerge of its advanced AI chips being smuggled into China despite U.S. export restrictions.
The underground market, driven by strong demand for these powerful chips, highlights the ongoing tech rivalry between the U.S. and China.
More than 70 distributors are openly advertising what they claim to be Nvidia&#8217;s restricted chips online, with many verified sellers confirming steady supplies, the Wall Street Journal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/the-underground-network-sneaking-nvidia-chips-into-china-f733aaa6?mod=tech_lead_story" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Many sellers take preorders and promise delivery within weeks, indicating a robust supply chain.
Some even offer entire servers equipped with high-end Nvidia chips, costing up to $300,000. This network caters primarily to AI startups and research institutions in China, the WSJ report added.
Nvidia does not sell its powerful data center chips directly to customers but through third parties like Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).
Resellers in China typically ask $32,400 for Nvidia&#8217;s H100 chip, significantly higher than the typical cost, the WSJ report claims.
An estimate suggests about 12,500 AI chips are smuggled annually, while Nvidia sold over 2.6 million A100 and H100 chips globally last year.
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39293929/whats-going-on-with-nvidia-amd-stocks-on-wednesday" rel="noreferrer noopener">Prior reports indicated</a> the U.S. government plans to extend its semiconductor technology embargo to Russia, following similar restrictions on China and the Middle East.
This decision stems from concerns that increased trade between China and Russia is helping Moscow bolster its military capabilities.
Previous sanctions on China led semiconductor companies to produce less effective chips to adhere to the restrictions.
China&#8217;s leading chip manufacturer, Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp, is reportedly increasing its chip production using domestic tools.
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/06/39227871/nvidias-ai-chip-has-a-tough-competitor-from-china-huaweis-latest-ascend-910b" rel="noreferrer noopener">Earlier reports highlighted</a> Tencent Holding Ltd&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>) efforts to develop AI chips, aiming to capture part of Nvidia&#8217;s dominant market share, which accounts for up to 90% of China&#8217;s $7 billion AI chip market.
Nvidia stock gained over 189% in the last 12 months as U.S. Big Techs splurge on their AI ambitions. Investors can gain exposure to Nvidia through Vanguard Information Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGT#NYSE">VGT</a>) and iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVW#NYSE">IVW</a>).
Price Action: NVDA shares traded lower by 0.70% at $121.81 premarket at the last check on Wednesday.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AMD Stock Prediction For 2024</h2>
When buying a stock for a longer time horizon, it is important for investors to assess where they think the stock is headed in the future.
When mapping a stock's future trajectory, investors should consider factors including the future earnings expectations and expected performance against a benchmark.
Advanced Micro Devices's revenue has grown at an average rate of 35.99% annually over the past 5 years. The average 1-year price target from analysts is $195.64, representing an expected 20.58% upside in 2025.
While past performance is not a guarantee of future results, investors should also look at a stock's historical performance when compared to both a benchmark index and the company's peers.

Tech, AI Drive $12.2B Inflows Into Growth ETFs, Marking Record Outperformance Over Value

Overall, ETFs pulled in $12.8 billion in capital last week, pushing the year-to-date inflows to $324.7 billion. U.S. fixed-income ETFs led the way higher with $8.3 billion in inflows, followed by inflows of $1.8 billion in international equity ETFs and $1.8 billion in currency ETFs. 
Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (ARCA:VOO), iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (ARCA:IVW), iShares Russell 2000 ETF (ARCA:IWM), Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (ARCA:VTI) and iShares MSCI EAFE Growth ETF (BATS: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/efg#BATS">EFG</a>) dominated the top creation list last week. 
Wall Street wrapped up the last week with gains. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index outperformed, advancing 2.4%, while the S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average booked gains of 1.3% and 0.3%, respectively. The gains were driven by the tech surge, especially NVIDIA (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). The chipmaker surpassed Apple (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) in terms of market cap and became the second-most valuable company in the United States. 
Rate cut bets ramped up last week following the weak data, which signaled a slowdown in the world&#39;s largest economy. U.S. manufacturing activity slowed for the second straight month in May, and U.S. construction spending fell unexpectedly for the second consecutive month in April on declines in non-residential activity. 
However, a stronger jobs report diminished rate cut bet hopes to end the week, leading to a spike in Treasury yields. U.S. job growth jumped in May and wage growth accelerated. The economy added 272,000 jobs in May, above the Bloomberg expectation of 185,000 jobs, reflecting continued strong hiring in a range of sectors.

5 Most-Loved ETFs of Last Week

There are tons of interesting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/taxes">tidbits about Tax Day</a>. 
According <a href="https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-delivers-strong-2024-tax-filing-season-expands-services-for-millions-of-people-on-phones-in-person-and-online-with-expanded-funding">to</a> the Internal Revenue Service (IRS):
<ul>
<li>Officers answered more than one million taxpayer phone calls this season.</li>
<li>They processed over 100 million individual tax returns through April 6.</li>
<li>Tens of millions more filings will be made on the April 15 deadline.</li>
<li>About 19 million taxpayers will file extensions due Oct. 15.</li>
<li>More than $200 billion in refunds were already delivered. </li>
<li>The average refund was $3,011 — a 4.6% increase from last April's average of $2,878.</li>
</ul>
These numbers change yearly, but there&#8217;s at least one fairly consistent Tax-Day trend: a jittery stock market. 
According to <a href="https://www.bankrate.com/investing/the-tax-season-effect/">Bankrate</a>, citing data from S&amp;P Global&#8217;s Kensho unit, the first couple weeks of April are typically &#8220;rougher.&#8221;
Many taxpayers will liquidate stocks or tap their money market funds to fulfill immediate cash requirements.
And from 2000 to 2016, the S&amp;P 500 Index declined an average 0.2% during the first two weeks before Tax Day.
After Tax Day, it&#8217;s a different scenario. The S&amp;P 500 usually bounces back to finish April about 1.7% higher on average (climbing &#8220;an astonishing&#8221; 75% of the time, Bankrate notes). 
Per <a href="https://money.com/stocks-could-rise-after-tax-day/">Money.com</a>, the S&amp;P 500 index enjoyed an average gain of 0.83% in the week following the tax deadline from 1998 to 2022 (for 19 out of 25 years). The one-week median gain throughout the year is 0.31%.
In April, the market&#8217;s overall impact is minimal. Investors would be wise to stick to their long-term investment strategy and prioritize contributing to tax-advantaged retirement accounts (i.e., <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-a-401k">401k plans</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-ira-accounts">IRAs</a>).
Historically, the S&amp;P 500 has yielded around 10 percent annual gains. The goal is to stay invested over time rather than attempting to time the market. 
Financial advisors typically suggest that their clients invest in S&amp;P 500 index funds (see below) and remain focused on distant future outcomes rather than short-term fluctuations.

The opening quarter of the year ended with U.S. equity indices marking the fifth consecutive month of gains, gold prices soaring to all-time highs and Bitcoin&#8216;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) market cap surging by over $500 billion in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bitcoin">the past three months.</a>
The exchange-traded fund (ETF) market witnessed significant activity, with certain funds capturing substantial inflows, reflecting shifting investor sentiment.
A review of March&#8217;s ETF inflows uncovers a notable trend: two Bitcoin-related ETFs, launched just at the start of the year, have swiftly made their way into the top 10 for inflows. This rapid ascent highlighted a significant shift toward embracing cryptocurrency within mainstream investment strategies.
According to Canaccord Genuity, this &#8220;tailwind should persist&#8221; in the quarters to come as retail investors increasingly seek to incorporate Bitcoin ETFs into IRAs and other tax-favored accounts. 
&#8220;The anticipation is that spot ETFs will play a more pivotal role in influencing Bitcoin&#8217;s price dynamics in the future,&#8221; analysts said in a note. 
A Bank of America&#8217;s recent analysis revealed a shift in investor behavior, with ETF inflows surpassing single stock inflows for the first time in five weeks.
Here&#8217;s an in-depth look at the top 10 ETFs by inflows for March, providing a clear view of where investors are placing their bets.

Two Bitcoin-Related ETFs Shine In March's Top 10 Inflow Rankings: 'This Tailwind Should Persist,' Analysts Say

Apple Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>),&nbsp;Meta Platforms Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and&nbsp;Google&#8217;s&nbsp;parent company&nbsp;Alphabet Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) are now under investigation by the European Union, according to its&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/03/37828545/meta-bows-down-to-eu-regulations-after-apple-and-google-cut-subscription-prices-for-ad-free-facebook" rel="noreferrer noopener">new Digital Markets Act</a>.
The announcement on Monday signifies the first batch of probes since the act&#8217;s recent enactment.
This comes from the U.S. Justice Department&#8217;s lawsuit against Apple for allegedly hindering competitors&#8217; ability to integrate with the iPhone, potentially increasing consumer prices, the Wall Street Journal&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/eu-launches-probes-into-apple-meta-google-under-new-digital-competition-law-4d383201" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

The investigations will focus on whether Apple and Google adhere to regulations mandating that they allow app developers to inform customers of alternative purchasing options outside their primary app stores.
The European Commission expresses concern over the limitations these tech giants may impose on developers&#8217; freedom to communicate with users and market their products.
Additionally, the EU plans to review alterations Google has implemented to display search results within Europe. The law prohibits companies from favoring their services over their competitors.
Another line of inquiry will examine Apple&#8217;s compliance with mandates for user-friendly software removal and default setting adjustments on iPhones, including providing choice screens for alternative search engines and browsers.
Meta&#8217;s &#8220;pay or consent&#8221; scheme, which requires European users who opt out of targeted ads on Instagram and Facebook to subscribe for a monthly fee, will also be scrutinized.&nbsp;
EU regulators have conflicted with major tech companies, imposing substantial fines on firms such as Google and&nbsp;Microsoft Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) for violating antitrust rules.&nbsp;
Microsoft attracted scrutiny for its alleged misuse of market power by integrating its Teams videoconferencing application with its Office suite.
Additionally, significant financial maneuvers, such as Microsoft&#8217;s $10 billion investment in OpenAI, the parent of ChatGPT,&nbsp;Amazon.Com Inc&#8217;s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) $1.4 billion merger with&nbsp;IRobot Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IRBT#NASDAQ">IRBT</a>), and Adobe Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADBE#NASDAQ">ADBE</a>) $20 billion acquisition of Figma, have all been subject to review by EU authorities.
Last week&#8217;s reports indicated Meta slashed the subscription cost for its ad-free versions of Facebook and Instagram in Europe to 5.99 euros a month, down from the initial rate of 9.99 euros, to mitigate the concerns of privacy and antitrust authorities in the region.
This adjustment seeks to balance the requirements of EU privacy regulations and the Digital Markets Act&#8217;s rules on ad personalization.&nbsp;
Investors can gain exposure to the U.S. Big Tech stocks via&nbsp;Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) and&nbsp;IShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVW#NYSE">IVW</a>).

Apple, Meta, and Google's Alphabet Under Scrutiny, EU Launches Antitrust Probes

To say Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has had a wild week would be an understatement. After ascending to almost $969 on Tuesday, the electric vehicle maker closed around $749 on Thursday. Even with that slide, the stock enters Friday up nearly 17% over the past week.
While plenty of articles have been written about exchange traded funds <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/20/01/15116422/3-etfs-with-meaningful-tesla-exposure">with significant Tesla exposure</a>, it almost feels like heresy to discuss the fund&#39;s that are light on Elon Musk&#39;s company. But as <a href="https://www.cfraresearch.com/">CFRA Research</a> Director of ETF &amp; Mutual Fund Research Todd Rosenbluth points, some well-known ETFs have no exposure to shares of Tesla.
Here are some prominent examples.
Related: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/20/02/15272203/teslamania-runs-wild-now-what">Teslamania Runs Wild! Now What?</a>
<h3>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</h3>
It&#39;s not just the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/spy#NYSE">SPY</a>). It&#39;s the Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/voo#NYSE">VOO</a>), the iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ivv#NYSE">IVV</a>) and any ETF that follows the S&amp;P 500 or a related index. As Rosenbluth notes, the reasoning behind this is simple.
&ldquo;The S&amp;P 500 Index requires a company to generate four consecutive quarters of positive GAAP earnings before the stock is eligible to be added following an index committee vote,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;While TSLA reported GAAP EPS of $0.58 in the fourth quarter of 2019, pushing its string to two quarters, CFRA Equity Analyst Garrett Nelson highlights that Tesla announced a delay in vehicle deliveries from its recently-started China factory due to the coronavirus outbreak.&rdquo;
<h3>Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR (XLY)</h3>
Plenty of folks think of Tesla as technology company and perhaps a time will come that it&#39;s moved to that sector, but for now, the company, like auto manufacturing stocks, resides in the consumer discretionary sector.
The Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/xly#NYSE">XLY</a>), <a href="https://www.ssga.com/us/en/intermediary/etfs/funds/the-consumer-discretionary-select-sector-spdr-fund-xly">famous for its massive weight to</a> Amazon.com (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amzn#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), can&#39;t hold Tesla until meets the S&amp;P 500 profitability requirement because XLY&#39;s underlying index is essentially a representation of the S&amp;P 500 consumer cyclical constituency.
<h3>iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (IVW)</h3>
The iShares S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ivw#NYSE">IVW</a>), as is the case with the aforementioned S&amp;P 500 ETFs, isn&#39;t alone in its exclusion. In addition to the iShares fund, several rivals track the S&amp;P 500 Growth Index and Tesla isn&#39;t yet part of that benchmark.
Based on Tesla&#39;s market value of almost $133 billion at Thursday&#39;s close, if the stock entered the S&amp;P 500 Growth Index tomorrow, it would be the third-largest consumer discretionary name in the benchmark, behind only Amazon and Home Depot (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hd#NYSE">HD</a>).
Rosenbluth has Overweight ratings on all of the ETFs mentioned here.

3 Popular ETFs With No Tesla Exposure

미국 소형주는 화요일 5일 연속 상승세를 기록했다. iShares Russell 2000 ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>)는 3.41% 급등하여 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/small-caps" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">지난 5거래 동안</a> 지수가 11%가 넘는 누적 이익을 얻었다. 이 놀라운 연속 상승세는 2020년 6월 이후 러셀(Russell) 2000의 5일간 최고의 성과를 나타다.
이러한 소형주의 급격한 상승은 연방준비제도(연준)가 9월 회의에서 금리를 인하할 것이라는 현 시점의 확신에 기인한다. 실제로 러셀 2000 랠리는 지난주에 시작되었다. 6월 인플레이션 데이터가 기대치를 밑돌면서 금리 인하에 대한 트레이더들의 추측이 촉발되면서 시작되었다.
CME 그룹의 페드워치(FedWatch) 도구에 따르면, 연준 선물은 이제 거의 두 달 만에 금리 인하 가능성이 100%로 나타났으며, 이는 2020년 이후 처음으로 차입 비용이 감소하는 사례가 될 것이다. 월요일에 제롬 파월 연준 의장은 비둘기파적인 어조로 최근 인플레이션 보고서가 2% 목표로 돌아갈 수 있는 자신감을 강화하고 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/07/39779256/powell-praises-latest-inflation-progress-hints-at-imminent-rate-cuts-warns-hes-ve" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">향후 금리 인하</a>를 효과적으로 암시했다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">기술주에서 작은 소형로의 전환</h2>
소형주가 금리 기대에 대한 민감도가 높아지는 것은 자본 시장에서 주식이나 채권 발행을 통해 자금을 조달하는 대형주와 달리 은행 자금조달에 대한 의존도가 높기 때문이다.
이로 인해 투자자들은 금리 인하의 초기 수혜자(주로 대형주 기술주)에서 이후 단계에서 이익을 얻을 것으로 예상되는 대상(소형주 및 순환주)으로 초점을 옮기게 되었다.
지난 5번의 세션 동안 러셀 2000 지수는 나스닥 100을 추적하는 기술주 중심 Invesco QQQ Trust(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)를 10.4% 포인트 앞섰으며, 이는 2016년 11월 이후 기술주에 대한 소형주의 상대적 상승 폭이 가장 넓은 기록이다.
"&#8217;과대평가된&#8217; 기술 분야에서 이익을 얻는 것이 미국 주식 시장에서 더 소외된 영역으로 유입되기 때문에 순환 배치에 대한 낙관적인 해석이 확실히 있다. 결과적으로 이번 매수는 구식 다우지수가 40,000선을 넘어 신기록을 경신하는 데 도움이 된 것처럼 모든 보트를 끌어올릴 것이다"라고 트레이드 네이션(Trade Nation)의 선임 시장 분석가인 데이비드 모리슨(David Morrison)이 말했다.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">소형주 가치에 대한 선호</h2>
거시경제학자이자 매크로바이저(Macrovisor)의 창립자인 아예샤 타리크(Ayesha Tariq)는 "이번 랠리가 지속 가능한지에 대해 여전히 의문이 있다"고 말했다.
타리크는 러셀 2000 지수의 상당 부분을 차지하는 지역 은행들의 실적이 아직 발표하지 않았기 때문에 여전히 불확실하다고 강조했다. 투자은행은 트레이딩 활동에 힘입어 양호한 실적을 보였지만 순이자마진(NIM)과 자산관리 부문은 여전히 ​​어려움을 겪고 있다. 예를 들어 뱅크 오브 아메리카(Bank of America)는 순이자소득(NII)이 3% 감소했다고 보고했고 웰스 파고(Wells Fargo)는 9% 감소했다.
또한 상대적으로 높은 수익률이 지속된다는 것은 지역 은행들이 대차대조표에서 미실현 손실에 계속 직면할 수 있다는 것을 의미한다고 이 전문가가 말했다.
최근 랠리에도 불구하고 타리크은 러셀 2000이 여전히 실적 침체로 어려움을 겪고 있음을 나타낸다. 그러나 그녀는 투자 관점에서는 소형 가치주가 더 매력적일 수 있다고 제안했다.
그녀는 뱅크 오브 아메리카에서 공유한 차트를 언급했는데, 이 차트는 iShares S&amp;P 500 성장 ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVW#NYSE">IVW</a>)가 추적하는 대형 성장주와 iShares Russell 2000 Value ETF(NYSE:<a class="items-end ticker-link-wrapper inline-flex" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/iwn" target="_blank" rel="dofollow noopener" aria-label="Go to Quote Page for IWN">IWN</a>)가 모니터하는 소형 가치주(iShares Russell 2000 Value ETF) 간의 밸류에이션 격차가 최근 소형주 랠리 이전에 2000년 이후 가장 넓었다는 것을 보여주고 있으며, 이는 추가적인 &#8220;따라잡기&#8221;와 로테이션 거래의 잠재력을 나타낸다고 말했다.

엔비디아(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)의 주식은 인공지능(AI) 열풍 덕분에 상승세를 보이고 있다. 2024년 6월, 엔비디아는 일시적으로 세계에서 가장 가치 있는 회사가 되어 3조 3,400억 달러의 가치를 달성했다.
퍼스트 포스트(First Post)에 <a href="https://www.firstpost.com/tech/nvidia-promises-up-to-700-return-upon-investing-in-ai-gpus-eyes-4-trillion-market-cap-13792152.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">보도</a>따르면 BofA 증권 2024 글로벌 기술 컨퍼런스에서 엔비디아의 하이퍼스케일 및 HPC 사업부 부사장 겸 제너럴 매니저인 이안 벅(Ian Buck)은 GPU 투자의 재정적 이점을 강조했다.
또한 읽어보기: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39733017/taiwan-semiconductor-joins-the-trillion-dollar-club-surpassing-tesla-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">대만 반도체(TSMC), 테슬라를 제치고 조 달러 클럽에 합류</a>
그는 클라우드 제공업체들이 엔비디아의 GPU를 통해 상당한 투자 수익을 얻을 수 있다고 언급했다. 4년 동안 공급자들은 GPU에 지출된 1달러당 5달러를 창출할 수 있다.
벅은 추론 작업이 같은 기간에 투자한 1달러당 7달러의 이익을 얻을 수 있어 훨씬 더 수익성이 높으며 이 수치가 증가하고 있다고 지적했다.
엔비디아는 라마(Llama), 미스트랄(Mistral), 젬마(Gemma) 등 인기 있는 AI 모델을 지원하는 엔비디아 추론 마이크로서비스(NIM)과 같은 제품을 통해 증가하는 AI 추론 수요에 적극적으로 대처하고 있다. 이 회사는 또한 새로운 블랙웰(Blackwell) GPU에도 주력하고 있다.
벅은 데이터 센터 건설 프로젝트에 필요한 중요한 계획을 언급하면서 조기 협업의 필요성을 강조했다.

탄탄한 수익 성장, 높은 가치 평가, 강력한 혁신 잠재력을 특징으로 하는 성장 주식에 초점을 맞춘 상장지수펀드(ETF)는 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">6월에 자금 유입</a>이 증가했다.
성장연계 펀드에 대한 관심의 급증은 기술 부문에 대한 투자자의 신뢰 증가와 인공 지능(AI)과 같은 파괴적인 혁신을 반영하여 가치주에 비해 성장주의 상당한 성과와 일치했다.
운용자산(AUM) 기준으로 가장 큰 8개 성장연계 ETF는 이달 초부터 6월 24일까지 총 122억 달러 상당의 자금이 유입되었다.
선두를 달리고 있는 뱅가드 성장 ETF(Vanguard Growth ETF)(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VUG#NYSE">VUG</a>)는 ETF 동종 업계 중 가장 높은 월별 유입을 기록하며 인상적인 56억 8천만 달러를 유치했다. 이 놀라운 수치는 Vanguard Growth ETF의 월간 최고 유입으로 기록될 예정이며, 6월에는 iShares Core S&amp;P 500 ETF(NYE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IVV#NYSE">IVV</a>)가 유치한 약 100억 달러에 이어 2위를 차지했다.

</ul>

세금 납부 마지막 날에 관한 흥미로운 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/taxes">정보</a>들이 많다.
국세청 (IRS)에 따르면 :
<ul>
<li>이번 시즌에는 100만 건 이상의 세무 관련 전화에 대답했다.</li>
<li>4월 6일까지 개인 소득세 환급을 포함하여 1억 건 이상의 세무 신고를 처리했다.</li>
<li>4월 15일 마감일에도 수십만 건의 추가 신고가 이루어질 것으로 예상된다.</li>
<li>약 1,900만 명의 세무자가 10월 15일까지의 연장 신청을 제출할 것으로 예상된다.</li>
<li>이미 2,000억 달러 이상의 환급액이 지급되었다.</li>
<li>평균 환급액은 3,011달러로, 작년 4월의 평균 2,878달러 대비 4.6% 증가했다.</li>
</ul>
이러한 숫자는 매년 바뀝니다. 그러나 적어도 하나의 상당히 일관성 있는 세금 납부 마지막 날의 트렌드가 있다: 예민한 주식 시장의 움직임.
사실 <a href="https://www.bankrate.com/investing/the-tax-season-effect/">뱅크레이트(Bankrate)</a>는 S&amp;P 글로벌(S&amp;P Global)의 켄쇼(Kensho)부서의 자료를 인용하며 4월 첫 두 주 동안의 주식 시장의 흐름은 일반적으로 &#8220;거칠다&#8221;고 설명한다.
많은 세금 납세자들은 즉시 현금이 필요한 경우 주식을 처분하거나 자금 시장 펀드에 접근할 것이다.
2000년부터 2016년까지 세금 납부 마지막 날 전 2주간 S&amp;P 500 지수의 평균 하락율은 0.2%였다.
납세일 이후에는 다른 상황이다. S&amp;P 500은 평균적으로 4월에 약 1.7% 상승하여 마감하는 경향이 있다(뱅크레이트는 이를 &#8220;놀라운&#8221; 75%의 확률로 상승한다고 한다).
머니닷컴(<a href="https://money.com/stocks-could-rise-after-tax-day/">Money.com</a>)에 따르면 S&amp;P 500 지수는 1998년부터 2022년까지 세금 마감일 다음 주(25년 중 19년)에 평균 0.83%의 상승률을 기록했다. 연중 1주 중간 상승률은 0.31%이다.
4월에는 시장의 전반적인 영향이 미미하다. 투자자는 장기 투자 전략을 고수하고 세금 혜택이 있는 퇴직 계좌(예: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-a-401k" target="_blank" rel="noopener">401k 플랜</a> 및 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-ira-accounts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IRAs</a>)에 우선적으로 기여하는 것이 현명할 것이다.
역사적으로 S&amp;P 500은 연간 10%의 수익을 실현시켰다. 목표는 시장 타이밍을 맞추려고 시도하기보다는 시간이 지남에 따라 투자를 유지하는 것이다.
금융 자문가들은 일반적으로 자신들의 고객들에게 S&amp;P 500 지수 펀드(아래 참조)에 투자하고 장기적인 결과에 초점을 맞출 것을 제안한다.

</ul>
야데니 리서치(Yardeni Research)의 대표 에드 야데니(Ed Yardeni)는 2026년까지 S&amp;P 500의 지수가 26% 급등하여 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37724263/this-is-a-long-term-bull-market-market-expert-ed-yardeni-stands-by-his-5-400-year-end-s-p-500-ta">6,500</a>에 이를 수 있다고 예측한다.
&#8220;저는 이것이 장기적 강세 시장이라고 생각한다,&#8221;고 이 경제학자가 3월 CNBC에 <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2024/03/13/this-is-a-long-term-bull-market-says-ed-yardeni.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">말했다.</a> &#8220;저는 올해 말까지 5,400을 전망하고, 그것은 작년에 꽤 대담한 예측이었는데, 지금 그 예측이 보수적으로 보인다. 왜 더 이상도 안되겠나?&#8221;
