Good MorningEquity markets rebounded on Tuesday as treasury yields advanced, and better-than-expected earnings from Verizon helped calm frayed nerves. Verizon's results were mixed with revenue as expected, but profitability was better than expected, and free cash flow guidance was raised. The news sparked an 8% rise in the share price as investors scooped up the deep value and high yield the stock had to offer.
The S&P 500 gained about 1% at the session's high to reveal support at a critical level. The caveat for traders and investors is that the rebound is tepid in light of the previous correction and the outlook for PCE prices on Friday. The PCE Price Index is expected to accelerate from the prior month and reinvigorate the idea more interest rate hikes are coming. In this scenario, Tuesday's rebound is nothing more than a relief rally within a downtrend, and the downtrend will likely continue before the week is through.

From Our Partners | | Trump is launching a new $250 bill - but that may be a distraction. Behind the scenes, Executive Order 14241 is orchestrating what analyst Porter Stansberry calls a total U.S. money reset, bypassing conventional legal channels under the guise of national security.
The last time America reset its currency - under Nixon in the 1970s - it created an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over 50 years. Stansberry has identified three asset categories connected to Trump's initiative that could surge, plus his single top investment move. | | Watch the documentary briefing and find out which side you land on |
