[Tom Lee Predicts S&P 500 May Rise to 7,300 Points in December] On December 2, Tom Lee stated on CNBC that the S&P 500 index could experience a 'melt-up' by the end of the year, with a target range of 7,200-7,300 points. He emphasized a 'very bullish' outlook on the market. Lee believes that a surge in liquidity, capitulation selling, and the timing window are key factors. He pointed out that quantitative tightening (QT) has ended, and the Federal Reserve's rate cut this month along with the halt of balance sheet tightening will lead to a significant increase in liquidity. Lee also mentioned that institutional sentiment is pessimistic, and many fund managers may engage in 'performance chasing' due to a strong December rally, which could trigger a notable rise in market ETFs.
