Why the f*** are stocks rallying....? I'm just so baffled. Futures keep shifting while realities remain mostly the same. Open hostilities are down sure, but there seems no hope of a resolution any time soon and the ceasefire ends in like 1.5 weeks... Then what?

Market since 2020 have been completely irrational. The thing is, the Market cannot stay irrational forever, it still is supposed to be based on actual market share value of real companies and their real operations, we will soon or later see a collapse on it's own weight, because it needs to maintain a connection with reality, wanting or not. Specially given that we have all the metrics telling us that U.S is already in a recession, it's just that NBER takes from 6-18 months to give the official information "We are in a recession".

Mega corporations can weather economic turbulence better than smaller companies Most indexes are only the largest companies in the economy. Investors expect the enough smaller companies to go bankrupt giving more mega corporations a monopoly/duopoly

The global economy shut down in 2020 and stock markets were hitting all time highs by the end of that year. The stock market is its own special thing, it doesn't really need to follow any logic.

A shitty future is coming. A harsher, more miserable future is on the way.

3.4% down to 3.1%, with the possibility of it falling to 2.5% No idea why they couldn't just say that in the article
