Good MorningTuesday was another quiet day of trading for the major markets but that all came to an end after the close of the session. Reports from Microsoft and Google-parent Alphabet both beat the consensus estimates and sent their respective markets moving off in different directions. Shares of Alphabet gained more than 5.0% in the wake of the report while Microsoft fell nearly the same amount. Market action on Wednesday is going to be hot with traders shedding underperforming names in favor of those with proven results. Earnings-driven action will heat up again after the close with reports from Apple and Yum Brands to name a few.
The FOMC meeting is also a big focus of the day. The FOMC isn't expected to change its policy stance but a shift in sentiment toward inflation could send the market reeling. Based on reports from Alcoa, Packaging Corporation of America, and the rising price of oil it looks like is inflation is here and fairly strong too.
