The first trading week of the year is showing real momentum on Wall Street. Despite some geopolitical tensions creating uncertainty in the background, investors are staying upbeat. Financial analysts point out that robust growth forecasts are the main driver keeping market sentiment buoyant right now. The consensus seems to be that positive economic data and solid earnings expectations are outweighing near-term political concerns. This kind of optimism in early January often sets the tone for how markets perform throughout the year—traders are betting on sustained growth momentum ahead.

The start-of-year rally is really quite strong, but I still think we should be cautious. It feels like political risks are being underestimated.

The early FOMO has started, and the big institutions are once again spinning their dreams...

Looking at the early trading momentum, it's definitely a bit exciting, but I still think we need to be cautious... The geopolitical situation is bound to blow up sooner or later.

The early bullish trend is fine, but I'm worried about another wave of pullback later...

The early trading session is filled with bullish voices, and as expected, the market is supported. When it falls, they say the fundamentals are good.

Haha, it's the same old story. Will being optimistic in January be enough to get through the whole year? I just feel like it's a bit hollow.

Hmm... Let me take a look at this logic. The recent rally at the start of the year mainly relies on growth expectations, but the problem is how solid are these data points themselves? Geopolitical risks haven't diminished; instead, they are accumulating. It feels like a gamble that the fundamentals can hold up later on, which is a bit uncertain.

Bullish outlook in the early session, but can this wave last until Q2... Geopolitical situations can change at any time
