The US stock market on Friday hit an all-time high, its first since mid-February. It marked the culmination of a remarkable recovery on Wall Street since flirting with bear market territory in early April.

In all, the S & P 500 has soared more than 20% since an April low in the wake of Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff announcement. Over that period, the tech-heavy Nasdaq has climbed 28%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average has jumped 12%.

The S&P 500 closed at a record high on Friday, soaring to its highest level since February as investors cheered a host of bullish catalysts.
