Med, which helped lift the mood. Well have more on that in a moment. Anl streets view of the u. S. china trade negotiations, which seem to changeil they were optimistic today. It all contributed to a continuaon of the latest rally that began in early october. The dow was up another 190 points, nasdaq was up 112. S p added3. Mike santoli takes a closer looe ater the new highs can hold. Wall streets record rally t slowed in rec weeks but not yet stopped. The broad s p 500 drifted to a fresh alltime high monday, it up only a fraction of a percent over the past ten days. Now with th i ahead by nearly 25 for the year, the question turns to wheer the rally has already priced in most good news on th economy and trade or whether the market is really pausing ahead of a typicalun homestretch higherhrough december. The key drivers for the markets recovery since august remain in placsi raant rec fears in late summer now appear unfounded. Mobile growth is showing signs of picking it. The Federal Reserve is on hold with rates at the benign level and seasonal factors favorks st at the year end. And when a stockains 20 the following of the yea is also up about 70 of the time, albeit with moreodest gains. Still, some analysts are quibbling with the Market Action here and there. The porti of alltocks that are keeng case with the major indexes has falleoff a bit. The c economiclical stocks that led the way across the august market bottom, repealed a little bit. And stock valuations are about as high as relative to corporate earnings as they havs been t decade. Its easy to make the case stocks rped the benefit of a u. S. china trade deal and returning growth for coming hoarders. Still grinding higher overshadow trade and policy issues is exactly what strong bull markets tend to do. For nightly business report, im mike santoni. Now to discuss the market and continue hire, president andf ch Investment Officer at enna and walsh Asset Management nice to have you here. Nice to be here. Do you agree with mikes last point that bullarkets tend to slowly grind higher . Yes, i think were in a market whe most investors who were fearing a pottial recession about a month ago n fearing out on the next upside in the market. We have a very confident consumer, aonsumers as we all know are a large part of the u. Economy. The less the consumer spends, the stom does better. And this could bring a littl santa claus rally at the endf the year. But when we start convincing ourself that the market only has one direction to go that i start gettt you . Understandable. But i think the underlying edrivers are ahead with ead front being 70 of the economy. Have the lowest unemploymen 5 level i years, wages are rising and a Federal Reserveho basically told us theyre not going to do anything, at least for next month. That set the stage for a pretty good stock market rally butg its goo be limited because of where valuations are right now. That ms going to be next question. If we do get a little santa claus rally, abouthat type of percentage gain do you think is still left in this market . As it stands now we think the market can grow by 10 between now and the end of 2020 with the bulk of that gain likely becoming between now and the second of e Second Quarter of next year. Once we get that the summer months of next year, we get to the democrat convention, Republican Convention and we can see tremendous volatility until we know who the candidates are. Who do you think takes us bhigher . Wevn through a couple of cycles where growth led the way for a time and then the defensive issues led the way for a time. Now were back to growth agai ere back to growth again gut investors are craving income. Theyre looking for a yield because they cant turn to traditional income sources when 1. 7 . Reasury is yielding about they want growth opportunities, they want Dividend Income and that points to div ndpaying stocks. Kevin, thank you very much for joining us tonight. Mysu pl.

The wall street journal citing research by zillow saying a Record Number of homes will hit the Real Estate Market over the next twoecades as baby boomers age. Question is, whos going to buy all of those homes . Joining us tonight we welcomeuy back sr olsen, senior oconomist at zillow. Schuyler, good see you again. Welcome back. Thanks for having me again. First of all, how many hopes are we talking about . Well, i mean one of the ways to kind of think about this is roughly a third ofomes are owned by those 60 and older. And if you wan to project that into what that means into the future, youre looking at roughly 2 million more homes being released n over thet decade than the previous decade, just by the rate ofiz dowg from that older generation. You would think with the housing shortage that wld be good news for those who want to move into those homes but some of those homes are in areas young people are not much interested in living anymore. Yes, i think if were looking from a national pictur its hard to say really how this will net out because the millennium generation itself is so huge and a l of force guide buyers. And youre right, until i get to a much more local bell, say looking at rough bell areas that have not been able to add the jobs or iustry growth tha attracts a younger population or, say, places that areeme facto rett communities. So they dont track that younger population by very nature of what they offer to olderig generations in there exclusivity in those kinds of commies. Those areas, the relative siz between boomers and the nexton genera gen x will make it so housing will slow dn. Prices may really truly start to sell down and sales will have a really hard time picking up. We should be clear were not just talking about retiring baby boomers. Were talking about baby boomers who are moving t assisted living or moving in with their kids. Theyve been retired already. In the article we talk about sun cihi, arizona, is one of the biggest retirement areas cities in the country, that will be affected as well,right . Yes, absolutely. And what were really aetting at fo lot of elements here is really towards the later stage of life. What really, one of the that makes you change home is the loss of a spouse, the loss of the person w made the home that it was. To go through thth experience, i k ma the next sefrmg decades will go through and that will cause a lot of housing change. A something to thinkut tonight. Schuyler olsen with zillow again.
