    Stock records aren’t enough to make investors feel bullish on the market

    The U.S. stock market is back at record levels, but investors aren’t in a celebratory mood. According to the weekly survey of sentiment conducted by the American Association of Individual Investors, market participants are feeling somewhat tepid about the market, despite a lengthy move higher that took both the S&P 500 (SPX) and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) to records on Thursday, a move that represented the first such milestone for the Dow since January.

    [$$] Companies Buy Earnings Gains by Buying Back Stock

    A key driver in the surge of stock buybacks was last December’s tax overhaul, which lowered companies’ tax bills and freed up funds that many companies are using for share repurchases. S&P 500 companies bought back a record $189 billion of their own shares in the first quarter, and a similar number—if not more—is expected for the second quarter, according S&P Dow Jones Indices. Stock buybacks make profits appear better by boosting per-share earnings, a metric that investors frequently use to justify a company’s stock price.

    Nobody Will Even Guess What Stocks Will Do After Mid-Term Vote

    Reading market forecasts for the November congressional elections, you get the sense something is missing. While Wall Street is awash with efforts to frame outcomes as the vote approaches, there’s a discernible vagueness when you get to the part where strategists say what stocks will do. You may recall a certain trepidation in the air over how markets would receive a Donald Trump victory in November 2016.

While the Dow closed higher, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq ended the session in negative territory.
