The Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) has been a great performing index, as it beat the broader S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) in 2024 by rising 28.6% versus the S&P 500's 23.3%. It wouldn't surprise me to see those results again in 2025,

The Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF, which holds Nvidia, Apple Inc., Microsoft Corp, Google parent Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Tesla Inc. and Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc, was up 2.3%, according to FactSet data, at last check. That exceeded the S&P 500’s 1.3% rise.

STORY: U.S. stocks closed mostly higher on Monday, thanks to a rally in chip stocks. But the Dow ended marginally lower. The S&P 500 gained more than half a percent and the Nasdaq rose about one-and-a-quarter percent.
