Reason for today's rally was talk on a relief bill that will 999999% pass sooner than later. It will not include any free $1200 bucks but what it will do is extend that unemployment benefit for many many many more months even though the unemployment rate is now at 6.7% which is still considered historically low. The extension of benefits and other free handouts will boost markets even higher. The catalyst after that is anyone's guess. Most likely it will be the continued free fed handouts into 2021 and beyond.
