Good MorningStocks gave up some of the Monday gains on Tuesday as an air of caution set back into the market. As if this week’s non-farm payrolls report isn’t enough to have traders on edge there are new developments concerning government stimulus and a Presidential debate to consider. The first of three debates between incumbent Donald Trump and hopeful Joe Biden promises to be memorable if nothing else.
The earnings continue to roll in although it is still a few weeks until the peak of the 3Q earnings season. Reports from Micron and IHS Markit along with new guidance from Big Lots reinforces the idea that 3Q earnings are going to be better than expected. With the analysts already upping their targets, this is good news for the market indeed. If this trend persists the S&P 500 will be setting a new all-time high before the end of the year.
