TradingKey - Since late March, the US stock market has staged a strong rally. As of June 15, the Nasdaq Composite Index recorded a cumulative gain of 28%, the S&P 500 Index rose 18.8%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 14%. Entering June, the market experienced a notable correction during the release window for core macroeconomic data, with the technology sector leading the decline.
