S&P 500, Nasdaq Futures Rise After Record-Setting Week
Wall Street futures are pushing higher as traders build on last week's record gains across major indexes.
Momentum is everything in this market, and right now it's pointing up.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both notched record closes, and that kind of price action tends to attract more buyers — not scare them away. Breakouts breed breakouts. If you've been sitting on the sidelines waiting for a pullback that never came, this is the market sending you a message.
