What Happens Next for the Market Is in Nvidia’s Hands

I know many people expect the market to rally after the election, and it may, given that we’ll likely see an IV crush as the event risk passes—something we see regularly, however, where the market heads between now and year-end will likely rest again in Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:) hands. The stock now holds an overwhelming influence across all major indexes due to its recent inclusion in the .

Nvidia alone accounts for 26% of the gains this year in the Bloomberg 500, a proxy for the S&P 500. Following Nvidia, Meta (NASDAQ:) contributes nearly 6%,
