On November 30, 2025, U.S. stock indexes posted gains: the S&P 500 Index increased by +0.28%, the Dow Jones by +0.09%, and the Nasdaq 100 by +0.79%. December E-mini S&P futures rose +0.28% and December E-mini Nasdaq futures rose +0.81%. Strength in technology and semiconductor stocks, particularly MongoDB (up more than +24%) and Credo Technology Group Holding (up more than +17%), driven by better-than-expected earnings, supported these gains.
As of now, 475 out of 500 S&P companies have reported Q3 earnings, with 83% surpassing forecasts and an overall rise of +14.6% in earnings. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) kept its global GDP forecast for 2025 unchanged at 3.2% but raised the U.S. forecast to +2.0% from +1.8%. Additionally, the 10-year T-note yield hit a 1.5-week high of 4.11%, contributing to limiting stock market gains.
Upcoming U.S. economic indicators include an expected increase of +10,000 in Nov ADP employment and a rise of +0.3% in personal spending for September. Market expectations indicate a 96% chance of a -25 basis point rate cut at the upcoming FOMC meeting on December 9-10.
