In a stark contrast to the recent rally, Wall Street encountered a hiccup in its upward climb on Monday, as major indices retreated from their consecutive weeks of gains.

In a remarkable turn of events, Wall Street witnessed a significant surge on Friday, with the S&P 500 scaling to its highest closing point of 2023, driven by growing optimism and speculative sentiments around potential interest rate cuts.
As November draws to a close, Wall Street celebrates a remarkable ascent, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average leaping to a new high for 2023, marking an 8% rally for the month.
