Black Friday Spending Fueled Fed Rally Hopes
This episode examine the immediate economic aftermath of Thanksgiving 2025, focusing on a robust consumer market indicated by record Black Friday online spending totals. This strong performance, alongside growing expectations for a future interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve, fueled a significant rally in the U.S. stock market, allowing major indexes to register their best weekly gains since June.
