The S&P 500 Just Completed Its 7th Straight Up Week. History Says It's Still Time to Buy.
The S&P 500 completed a seventh consecutive weekly gain — only the 40th such streak since 1928 — and has returned roughly 16% since the March low. Historical data show strong forward results after seven-week streaks (e.g., 82% positive 12-month hit rate with a median annualized +13.56%), suggesting above-average chances of continued gains. The piece highlights robust corporate fundamentals (Q1 earnings growth ~27.7% YoY; expected ~21% growth in 2026) and a forward P/E of about 21, arguing valuations are reasonable given earnings momentum. Overall, the article treats the streak and accompanying data as a bullish market signal and makes a case that it’s still a favorable environment to own S&P 500 exposure.
