Good MorningEquity markets advanced on Tuesday in hopes that stability in the trade outlook would soon emerge. With maximum uncertainty in the air, simply solidifying the outlook regardless of tariffs could be enough to catalyze a significant broad market stock rally. The index is in rebound mode and moving higher, with eyes on the 5,700 level. Moving above it would trigger the market, leading to a retest of the all-time high.
Economic data and earnings are other potential catalysts for stocks this week. The monthly labor data is due, and the first report, the JOLTs report, was weaker than expected but still shows ample job availability. Regarding earnings, reports from Microsoft, Meta Platforms, and Amazon will give a deep look into the state of tech spending, and it is expected to be strong. The question is whether they will outperform consensus estimates and provide positive guidance, and the odds are high they will due to the low bar set by analysts.
