The month ahead is poised to be a bright one for the market, analysts say. April began with a staggering jobs report for March, and economists are anticipating a strong second quarter. On Thursday, the last day for trading in the holiday-shortened week, the S&P 500 increased 1.2%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose over 170 points and the Nasdaq Composite jumped 1.8%.
Looking ahead, April is generally a pretty positive month for stocks.
“April is really good,” said the chief investment strategist at CFRA. “It’s the best month in terms of average price change. The second quarter is not a bad quarter on average. It’s up 2.8% on average since 1990, and all 11 sectors have posted average gains.”
And the Federal Reserve will release the minutes from its latest meeting next Wednesday, with Chairman Jerome Powell slated to speak about the global economy on Thursday.

“Today I issued an executive order prohibiting the use of so-called [virus] vaccine passports,” he said. “The Legislature is working on making permanent these protections for Floridians and I look forward to signing them into law soon.”
Earlier this week he’d said, “It’s completely unacceptable for either the government or the private sector to impose upon you the requirement that you show proof of vaccine to just simply be able to participate in normal society.”
