The S&P 500 also rose 8.9% in November, while Nasdaq jumped 10.7%. Both of these indexes had their best monthly performance since July 2022.

In the VRA Portfolio, two standouts among our ETF’s were SOXL (3 x Semi ETF), which was up 53% in November while NAIL (3 x Housing ETF) put up gains of 60%.

Of note, the month of December is up 74% of the time (on average). While we are overbought and sentiment has gotten a bit frothy, we continue to look for a strong finish to the year.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq are approx. 1% from their 2023 highs but its the all-time highs that this market has its sights set on.
