Citadel rides July rally after scooping up Situational Awareness assets

Citadel’s Wellington multistrategy fund rose 5.9% in July—the best month since 2022—lifting 2026 gains to about 12% as the firm benefited from a market rebound and acquired much of the former Situational Awareness public stock portfolio at a discount after its collapse; its tactical fund jumped 11.1% in July (up 27% YTD) and the equities fund gained 14.2% (up 27% YTD), with both posting their best months ever, while Citadel managed about $71 billion in assets as of July 1 and declined to comment.

Stock futures rise slightly as the market ends July with solid gains, but a recession may be looming, warns top economist

Stock futures rose slightly as the market is set to end July with solid gains. The S&P 500 is on track for its fifth consecutive positive month, while the Nasdaq Composite is also heading for its fifth straight winning month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 3.1% in July, with a 13-day winning streak last week. The market has seen broadening participation beyond mega-cap stocks, supported by resilient economic data, receding inflation pressures, and expectations of the end of the Federal Reserve's rate-hiking campaign. Investors will now focus on the upcoming jobs report, while strong earnings have been reported by a majority of companies so far this season.

"Stock Market Rally: July's Success and Summer's Potential"

July has become the best month for U.S. stock performance, with the S&P 500 rising 3.3% on average between 2012 and 2022. Last July saw a notable rally, and the market has continued to climb in 2023, driven by megacap technology stocks. While there are signs of a broadening rally, the question remains whether markets can thrive this summer. Analysts are optimistic, citing an improving economy and healthy U.S. data. However, there are concerns about lowered earnings estimates and stretched equity valuations. The market's performance will depend on factors such as corporate earnings and the Federal Reserve's liquidity measures.
