YOUR MORNING MARKET UPDATE

As investors enter the final trading week of the year, the stock market is poised for gains. Futures this morning indicated increases across all major averages after President Donald Trump signed off on the $900 billion stimulus relief package.

Last week, he had signaled that Americans should receive $2,000 checks versus $600 checks before he would approve the bill.

“I am signing this bill to restore unemployment benefits, stop evictions, provide rental assistance, add money for PPP, return our airline workers back to work, add substantially more money for vaccine distribution, and much more,” he said.

Is there still a chance larger checks could be on the way?

The joy of the holiday season and the beauty of the decorations can make it difficult to take down your Christmas tree after the holidays have passed. Yet, no one wants to be the person that keeps their tree up well past Valentine’s Day. But do you have to take everything down right after Christmas day?

Actually, many people keep their trees and decorations up many days after Christmas day. The old tradition of the twelve days of Christmas begins on December 25th and lasts until January 6th. So if you desperately want a few more days of holiday cheer, you’re in luck. Just remember that a natural tree only lasts for about four weeks.

Of course, you could be like the Queen of England and keep your holiday decorations up until February. Keep reading to find out why!

MENTAL HEALTH MONDAY

As another holiday approaches on the heels of Christmas, it should be noted that this time of year comes with its own set of mental health challenges. Thankfully, there are a few things you can do to help overcome them.

One tip is to adopt a healthy diet. Eating foods that are packed with vitamins and nutrients not only helps your physical health, but it helps your mental health as well. The right diet is a critical part of your overall well-being and can help improve your mood and outlook.

Perhaps one of the best tips is to spend more time in the sun. Increasing your vitamin D levels are proven to help improve mental health, so make sure you spend a little extra time outdoors when it’s bright and sunny. What else can you do to work through the mental health challenges that accompany the holidays?
