S&P 500 Futures reached an all-time high Tuesday morning, climbing to 2079.0, up 6.50.
The surge in the index comes amid news of a stronger U.S. economy, with the final GDP print of 2014 issued for the third quarter.
“Gross domestic product grew at a 5 percent annual rate from July through September, the biggest advance since the third quarter of 2003, and up from a previously estimated 3.9 percent, revised figures from the Commerce Department showed today in Washington,” according to Bloomberg.
The report added that the “median forecast of 75 economists surveyed by Bloomberg projected a 4.3 percent increase.”
