Edward Meir's Week in Review for AMU: Dec. 7, 2025

It was a generally more positive week for most markets as a better tone in US equities ushered in a measure of stability. The bitcoin/crypto sell-off eased somewhat as well. Some of the battered AI-related names also recovered. The likelihood of another December Fed rate cut this week also helped sentiment.

As for last week, the S&P 500 gained 0.3%. NASDAQ rose by 0.9%. And the Dow added 0.5%. US Treasuries began December on a sloppier note. They have rolled back all the rate declines chalked up in November (about nine basis points on the 10-year). The 10-year settled up eight basis points at 4.10% on Friday. The two-year yield settled up five at 3.54%.
