The interest rate outlook will come back into focus next week with key inflation data and Federal Reserve meeting minutes coming out ahead of Thanksgiving, as investors wrap up a major month for markets following President-elect Donald Trump's election victory. The October personal consumption expenditure (PCE) price index set to release Wednesday could dent already-dimming hopes for a December rate cut if it comes in hotter than expected. The inflation rate is expected to have increased 0.2% month over month and 2.3% year on year. Rosy expectations Even with the interest rate cut expectations coming in, investors are optimistic on the direction for stocks to close out the year and into 2025. Goldman Sachs' David Kostin this week said he expects the S & P 500 can end next year at 6,500.

While the hardware sales are certainly profitable, they pale in comparison to the profitability of Apple's Services. It's impossible to do consistently, and that's why Jim Cramer always says "own, don't trade" Apple stock. During the reported quarter, Apple returned over $29 billion to shareholders, including $3.8 billion in dividends and equivalents and another $25 billion via the repurchase of 112 million shares. Though Services sales missed the mark, gross income managed to outpace expectations thanks to significant year-over-year margin expansion. The growing installed base of active devices is of course translating into strong engagement with Apple's services.

In the high-octane world of Formula One, success is driven by more than just talented drivers and engineers. F1's dealmakers have brokered billions of dollars in revenue off the circuit, generating cash from several places, including media rights, ticket sales, merchandising and sponsorship. Our main source of success is because we are able to connect with our fans, understanding that we are a worldwide business," said Stefano Domenicali, Formula One Group CEO, in an interview with CNBC's Inside Track: The Business of Formula 1. In fact, it was a major deal — Liberty Media's acquisition of F1 in 2017 — that propelled the sport forward.
