Good MorningThe S&P 500 rebound on Friday to gain more than 1.25% and close the day at a new all-time high. The market shrugged off the threat of higher taxes in favor of earnings and economic data. On the earnings front, with 25% of the S&P 500 reports in the bag, the season is better than expected and coupled with rising guidance.
On the economic front, the Markit Flash PMI readings came in much hotter than expected and at a record high. The data improved on strength in both the services and manufacturing sectors and points to a robust and accelerating economic recovery in 2021. This week, earnings season continues with 181 S&P 500 companies reporting or nearly 40% of the index. If there’s going to be bad news we’ll know it by the end of the week.
