Stocks across industries  have been experiencing an upward momentum  in late Q4 2023.   The dynamics followed the challenges at the end of Q3 2023 , when all the key market indices, excluding Crude Oil (CL=F) and 10-Yr Bond (^TNX), declined from the top reached  in late July 2023. As Q4 2023 started, the declines at the end of Q3 2023 started slowing down. By  the end of Q4  2023 the stocks prices  were on the rise and have been following that trend since then. The positive momentum corresponds to the diminishing challenges, with the stocks and indices pushing through the beginning of 2024  with significant improvement in performances.  Hence,  since Q4 2023, the stock market  adjusted to the previous  dynamics that have been leading to increasing market volatility, including inflation, world events, and other challenges that started in late Q2 2022 and in October 2023.   The US elections in 2024 are expected to impact  the dynamics, but the performance  and factors from the end of year 2024 remain the main drivers.  On January 25, 2024, AroniSmart™ team, leveraging the NLP, Text and Sentiment Analysis, Machine Learning Econometrics and Time Series capabilities and Dominance Analysis of AroniSmartInvest ™ and AroniSmartIntelligence™, looked at the stock markets news and trends.

Stocks across  all sectors, especially in Tech, Healthcare, Financial Services,  Energy,  and Consumer  have been delivering differential returns over the last years including  in 2021, 2022, and Q1- early Q4 2024. Most stocks reached  heights in December 2021.  Then, in 2022 and up to mid-Q1 2023, the  stock growth became broadly negative across most sectors, except energy. The major stock market indices were also impacted.  Since then, many stocks across all sectors, along with the key  market indices have been on the rise, on a path to reaching the 2021 levels.  In a sample of key stocks to watch, as identified by AroniSmart™ team, leveraging the Machine Learning, Econometrics,  and NLP capabilities AroniSmartIntelligence™ and AroniSmartInvest™, most stocks have shown resilience and sometimes outperforming most of the other  stocks and the  key stock market indices.  As the end of Q4 2023 is reached , almost all the stocks, along with the key indices have reached  highs, even aiming at  their record highs.

 AroniSmart™ team, leveraging the Machine Learning Time Series capabilities, including Support Vector Machine,  and Dominance Analysis of AroniSmartIntelligence™ and AroniSmartInvest™,  has looked at the trends  of the stock prices of 21  selected  companies  between Q4 2021 and  Q4 2023 and came up with insights and  projections on the dynamics.   This is the Part 2 of the analysis.

Stocks across industries  have been experienced an upward momentum  in December 2023.   The dynamics followed the challenges at the end of Q3 2023 , when all the key market indices, excluding Crude Oil (CL=F) and 10-Yr Bond (^TNX), declined from the top reached  in late July 2023.
