The S&P 500 posted its best month since November 2020 in April, rising despite geopolitical tensions, higher oil prices, and renewed inflation concerns. Gains were supported by a strong start to Q1 earnings season and resilient economic growth, offsetting macro headwinds. The tone is constructive for risk assets, with the rally driven more by earnings and growth resilience than by a clear easing in external risks.
