The U.S. stock market continues to rise despite the government's
latest shutdown. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average hit
all-time highs on Friday. It's not just big tech driving the market;
the Russell 2000 index of smaller stocks and gold also reached
records. Past shutdowns have had minimal effects on the market, and
many investors expect the market to climb further. However, there are
concerns about expensive stocks, the need for rising corporate
profits, and whether the Federal Reserve makes further cuts to
interest rates. The AI boom also needs to deliver on its promises to
