ChainCatcher News, according to CNBC, although the market had a somewhat bumpy start in December, the trading engine still seems to have momentum and is expected to reverse the turbulence seen in November. Bitcoin has recovered some of its recent losses, and tech stocks rose in Tuesday's U.S. trading, helping the stock market rebound from the previous session's pullback—which had interrupted a five-day winning streak. This rebound indicates that investors' willingness to take on market risk has not disappeared; it just needed a brief pause. Other indicators also show that the market maintains confidence in a year-end rally. According to CME FedWatch, investors now see an 89.2% probability that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by a quarter point at the upcoming December 10 meeting. This expectation has risen sharply compared to a month ago, when the probability was closer to a 50-50 chance. Doug Beath, global equity strategist at Wells Fargo Investment Institute, said: "Barring any surprises, the market's focus is shifting back to fundamentals. The market seems to be turning its attention to better-than-expected fourth-quarter and 2026 calendar year earnings forecasts. In addition, it is looking beyond the current period of economic weakness we are experiencing, anticipating an acceleration in growth later next year." If investors are looking for a theme for the year-end rally, they may have finally found one: cautious optimism is striving to drown out the market noise.
