Magnificent Seven lift S&P 500 back to record territory

Reported · Written up by our desk · Sectors

MarketWatch reports the S&P 500 has returned to record territory as the “Magnificent Seven” staged a comeback after a period when the index traded sideways for much of the past year.

The outlet attributes the shift to renewed momentum in a bull market that had been threatened by rising bond yields and stubbornly high crude-oil prices.
