      TLDR:

      * US stocks ended higher with the S&P 500 closing at a new record as the market keeps grinding up and up into year-end.
      * Stronger-than-expected US GDP growth of 4.3% in Q3. This is powered by solid consumer spending which has helped fire up growth and big tech stocks, which has been bouncing back – Nvidia jumped 3%, while Amazon, Alphabet and Broadcom all gained over 1%.
      * Hot data has traders curbing back expectations for a Fed rate cut in January
      * The major indexes are on track for a third straight positive year and an eight-month winning streak, with traders eyeing a possible “Santa Claus rally.”​
      * Trading volume is already thinning out ahead of Christmas, with shortened hours and a holiday market shutdown coming up.​
