<h3>Last Week's Market Review</h3>
<p>Last week, the &#34;Trump trade&#34; combined with the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts supported the three major U.S. stock indices to reach new highs, with the Dow Jones and S&amp;P 500 achieving their best weekly performance in a year. On Friday, the Dow Jones broke through 44,000 points for the first time, and the S&amp;P 500 briefly rose above 6,000 points, marking the 50th new high of the year. However, due to weakness in chip stocks and technology stocks, the Nasdaq barely closed up but still reached a new high.</p>
<p>Boosted by financial stocks, the Russell small-cap index rose 0.71% on Friday and gained 8.57% for the week, outperforming other indices and achieving its best weekly performance since April 2020 during the pandemic.</p>
<p>Most sectors rose, with only telecommunications, technology, and materials sectors declining, while utilities, real estate, and consumer staples sectors led the gains. This week, due to Trump's policy inclination to relax regulations, financial and energy stocks performed well.</p>
<p>On Friday, the &#34;Trump trade&#34; supported Trump Media &amp; Technology (DJT) to close up 15.22%; Tesla rose over 8%, with a market value surpassing $1 trillion, accumulating nearly 30% gains in the three days following Trump's victory; Nvidia's five-day winning streak ended; the China concept index briefly fell over 5%, with Fangduoduo down over 21% and Tiger Brokers down over 14%.</p>
