Futures down: S&P 500 0.36%, Nasdaq 0.51%, Dow 0.15% Tesla slips as Denmark, Sweden sales drop; Trump-Musk feud Circle up after applying for US trust bank license By Sruthi Shankar and Nikhil Sharma July 1 (Reuters) - Wall Street indexes were set to dip on Tuesday, after touching record highs a day earlier, as investors monitored U.S. trade talks and a voting marathon in Washington over President Donald Trump's tax and spending bill. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite notched all-time closing highs on Monday, capping their best quarter in over a year as hopes for more trade deals and possible rate cuts supported sentiment. U.S. senators were still voting on Tuesday on a potentially long list of amendments to Trump's bill that is expected to bring a $3.3 trillion hit to the nation's debt pile. The Republican majority's struggle to pass the bill exemplifies deep divisions within the party over debt. The bill aims to partly cover the cost of the tax reductions with cuts to Medicaid and some food assistance programs for low-income Americans. Trump said he was open to moving the July 4 deadline he gave fellow Republicans in the U.S. Senate to get behind the bill, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he expects the Senate to pass the bill by the afternoon. "This version that we hear about is not necessarily the one that's going to pass. So you know that's still something that weighs on investors' minds," said Kim Forrest, [https://www.togeloleng.com/ bokep] chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners. Tesla's shares dropped 6.2% premarket after a fresh spat between CEO Elon Musk and Trump over the tax bill, with the president urging the government efficiency department to review the subsidies that Musk's companies have received. Tesla also reported a sales drop for a sixth straight month in Sweden and Denmark in June. Meanwhile, Trump expressed frustration with U.S.-Japan trade negotiations and Bessent warned that countries could be notified of sharply higher tariffs despite good-faith negotiations, as a July 9 deadline approaches. By 8:39 a.m. ET (1239 GMT), S&P 500 e-minis were down 22.5 points, or 0.36%. Nasdaq 100 e-minis dropped 116.5 points, or 0.51% and Dow e-minis slipped 66 points, or 0.15%. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq's rise to record highs marked a stunning recovery in sentiment that was hammered by Trump's chaotic trade policies and geopolitical tensions, with investors betting on AI enthusiasm and earnings momentum to keep the bull run going. The blue-chip Dow on Monday closed 2.2% below its all-time high touched in December. S&P Global and ISM's June manufacturing activity surveys, May [https://www.ourmidland.com/search/?action=search&firstRequest=1&searchindex=solr&query=job%20openings job openings] data as well as Fed Chair Jerome Powell's comments at a European Central Bank forum later in the day will be parsed for hints on U.S. monetary policy outlook. Soft economic data in recent weeks and expectations of Trump picking a dovish central bank head have supported bets of interest rate cuts from the Fed this year and next. Ahead of Thursday's crucial payrolls data, money markets were pricing in 68 basis points of rate cuts by the end of 2025 and about 131 bps of cuts by October next year, per LSEG data. Among other stocks, stablecoin firm Circle edged up 1.3% on news it was applying to create a national trust bank in the U.S. AMC Entertainment Holdings dropped 6.5% after the theater chain operator said it would cut its debt by converting at least $143 million in exchangeable bonds into shares.

While AI Takes The Spotlight Infrastructure Stocks Shine

2025-07-09T23:10:11Z

By Chuck Mikolajczak NEW YORK, Aug 4 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks have rallied this year, largely on the back of companies with ties to artificial intelligence (AI), but as those shares become expensive, [https://www.huffpost.com/search?keywords=investors investors] are turning towards firms set to benefit from government spending on infrastructure. Nvidia shares have surged almost 205% year to date, while Meta Platforms has surged about 160% as investors anticipate the potential AI may unlock. The S&P communications services and technology sectors have risen more than 40% to be the best performers so far this year. But while concerns grow that not all AI-related stocks will reap the benefits of the technology's promise and as hopes for [https://www.togeloleng.com/ adult] an economic soft [https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=landing landing] have grown, investors are looking at stocks in industries that have underperformed the broader S&P 500. "In technology, nobody ever guesses at the beginning who is the loser," said Kim Forrest, chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners in Pittsburgh. Morgan Stanley recently raised its U.S. economic growth forecast for the year on a strong industrial sector and more public investment in infrastructure, citing the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that was signed into law in November 2021. That spending has led investors to search for stocks that will reap the benefits of the boost in spending in construction and engineering. While the S&P 1500 industrials sector has risen nearly 13% so far this year and the materials one about 8%, those gains have been dwarfed by the 33% surge in the S&P 1500 construction materials and nearly 23% jump in construction and engineering indexes. "The whole onshoring initiatives, all the infrastructure, fiscal spending that came through during the pandemic - in people´s minds that was done two, three years ago but the reality is that money hasn´t even gone into the economy yet - it is just now hitting," said Bryant VanCronkhite, senior portfolio manager at Allspring Global Investments in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, in an interview with Reuters. "So we are looking at businesses that are in the crosshairs of those initiatives." VanCronkhite said he views companies such as Vulcan Materials in the materials space and MasTec among industrials as well positioned to benefit from that spending. Investors have rewarded companies in sectors that have reported strong earnings. Last week, Owens Corning shares climbed to a record high of $143.67 after the provider of building and industrial materials reported second-quarter earnings that handily beat expectations. Earnings for the S&P 500 industrials sector are expected to rise 13.7% for the second quarter from the year-ago period, up from 6.7% on July 1, while the materials sector is expected to show a decline of 26.4%, a slight improvement from the 28% fall seen on July 1, according to Refinitiv data. But while some stocks in the sector are likely to reap the benefits of the spending spree, not all are likely to do so and caution is warranted, said Forrest, who favors specialty chemical company RPM International. Forrest cited the potential for projects to be delayed or jeopardized due to environmental concerns, for example. "You have to look harder at these companies about what their end market really is, even though they're in a sector."

Fed's preferred inflation PCE data due on Friday Nvidia on track for third straight declining session Under Armour falls after agreeing on lawsuit payout * Indexes: Dow up 0.59%, S&P up 0.14%, Nasdaq down 0.21% (Updated at 9:54 a.m. ET/1354 GMT) By Ankika Biswas and Lisa Pauline Mattackal June 24 (Reuters) - The Nasdaq slipped on Monday, dragged down by weakness in Nvidia and other chip stocks, while investors geared up for a key inflation print this week that could further shape bets over the timing and quantum of rate cuts. Nvidia dropped 3%, taking its losses over three sessions to nearly 13%, with market participants citing profit taking in the AI favorite as the main reason for declines. "There's a good chance we'll see more profit taking in the coming days and weeks. (Nvidia) has had an incredible run, but people realise the shares need to consolidate their gains," said Michael O'Rourke, chief market strategist at JonesTrading. Other semiconductor stocks including the U.S. listing of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and Qualcomm fell over 2.5%, dragging an index of chip stocks down 1.3%. The S&P 500 information technology sector dropped over 1% to a near two-week low, though the other ten S&P 500 sectors were in the green. The biggest event on investors' radar for the week is Friday's personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index report- the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of inflation, expected to show a moderation in price pressures. "The PCE could drive the market higher if it's even a little bit lower than anticipated ... the Fed has every reason to try to cut, but they don't really want to talk about it because they need to be tough on inflation" said Kim Forrest, chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners. Market participants are still expecting about two rate cuts this year, pricing in an over 60% chance of a 25-basis-point cut in September, as per LSEG's FedWatch. The data comes against the backdrop of investors weighing the moderation in recent inflation data against the Fed's latest projection of one rate cut likely in December. Investors also awaited remarks from Fed voting committee member and San Francisco President Mary Daly during the day, in light of the narrative of higher-for-longer interest rates maintained by several Fed policymakers. Other events lined up for the week include durable goods, weekly jobless claims and final first-quarter GDP figures, the annual Russell index reconstitution, and quarterly earnings from the likes of FedEx, Micron Technology and [https://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/search/?q=Walgreens%20Boots Walgreens Boots] Alliance. Further, President Joe Biden will debate rival Donald Trump in Atlanta on Thursday, with both neck-and-neck in national opinion polls. At 9:54 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 231.04 points, or 0.59%, at 39,381.37, the S&P 500 was up 7.42 points, or 0.14%, at 5,472.04, and the Nasdaq Composite was down 36.97 points, or 0.21%, [https://www.togeloleng.com/ pencabulan] at 17,652.39. Under Armour dropped 1.4% after the sports apparel maker agreed to pay $434 million to settle a 2017 class action lawsuit over sales disclosures.

US STOCKS-Wall Street Rallies After Jobs Data; Debt Default Averted

2025-07-09T20:43:40Z

GertrudeSeamon:

Nasdaq set for best weekly winning streak since Jan 2020 Data shows jobless rate at 3.7% in May; wage growth moderates Amazon up on report of its talks for low-cost mobile services Materials, industrials lead S&P sectoral gains Indices up: Dow 2.11%, S&P 500 1.46%, Nasdaq 1.01% (Adds comment in paragraphs 5,8,9) By Herbert Lash and Shreyashi Sanyal June 2 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks rallied on Friday after a labor market report showing moderating wage growth in May, indicating the Federal Reserve may skip a rate hike in two weeks, while markets welcomed a Washington deal that avoided a catastrophic debt default. The tech-heavy Nasdaq index hit a 13-month intraday high as it headed for a sixth-straight week of gains that would mark its best winning streak since January 2020. U.S. job growth accelerated in May but a surge in the unemployment rate to a seven-month high of 3.7% suggested labor market conditions were easing, the Labor Department said. The jump in the unemployment rate from a 53-year low of 3.4% in April reflected a drop in household employment and a rise in the overall [https://www.blogher.com/?s=workforce workforce]. A bigger labor pool is easing pressure on businesses to raise wages and helping decelerate inflation. "While it appears to be a hot number on the actual number of people employed, the wage rate is not increasing as fast," said Kim Forrest, chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners in Pittsburgh. "That is a softening effect and is this the mythical soft landing? Looks like that." The data brought relief to investors who mostly expect the Fed to pause hiking rates at its policy meeting on June 13-14. It would be the first halt since the Fed started its aggressive anti-inflation policy tightening more than a year ago. But some pointed to the much hotter-than-expected jobs data as a sign the Fed still has not yet tamed inflation. "Our view is and has been that the market is completely wrong on assessing what the Federal Reserve is doing," said Phil Orlando, chief equity strategist at Federated Hermes in New York. "The market's perception is that this economy was going to cool, inflation was going to collapse and the Fed was going to turn around and start cutting interest rates. That's wrong." Fed funds futures showed a 66.6% probability that the Fed will hold rates steady in two weeks, down from 79.6% on Thursday, according to CME Group's FedWatch Tool. Markets now await data on key consumer prices a day before the Fed's rate decision. Also lifting an investor headwind was the Senate passing a bill late on Thursday to lift the government's $31.4 trillion debt ceiling, avoiding what would have been a catastrophic, first-ever default. Wall Street's fear gauge, the CBOE volatility index fell to its lowest since November 2021, down 1 point at 14.3 points. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 701.39 points, or 2.12%, to 33,762.96, the S&P 500 gained 61.71 points, or 1.46%, to 4,282.73 and the Nasdaq Composite added 130.52 points, or [https://www.togeloleng.com/ sex] 1%, to 13,231.50. Amazon.com Inc gained 1.6% after a report that the company is in talks with telecom operators to offer low-cost mobile services in the United States. All 11 major S&P 500 sectors traded higher, with the materials index jumping 3.3% and the consumer discretionary sector, housing Amazon, rising 2.4%. Advancing issues outnumbered declining ones on the NYSE by a 5.03-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.50-to-1 ratio favored advancers. The S&P 500 posted 15 new 52-week highs and two new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 66 new highs and 34 new lows.

Indexes down: Dow 0.33%, S&P 500 0.09%, Nasdaq 0.20% Boeing shares fall after Air India plane crash Oracle up after raising its annual revenue forecast (Updates after markets open) By Kanchana Chakravarty and Sukriti Gupta June 12 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main indexes slipped on Thursday as signs of rising tensions in the Middle East hurt risk sentiment and investors sought more clarity on Washington's recent trade deals with China. Boeing declined 4.7% after an Air India 787-8 Dreamliner jet crashed minutes after taking off in India's western city of Ahmedabad, killing more than 200 people. Underscoring increased volatility in the Middle East, President Donald Trump said on Wednesday U.S. [https://www.blogrollcenter.com/?s=personnel personnel] were being moved out of the region as it could be a "dangerous place" and the United States would not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon. "The clearing out of our embassies in the Middle East of non-essential employees sends a signal that we're anticipating some turbulent times," said Kim Forrest, chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners. A senior Iranian official said on Wednesday Tehran will strike U.S. bases in the region if nuclear negotiations fail and conflict arises. China on Thursday affirmed a trade deal with the U.S., saying both sides needed to abide by the consensus. Traders are still waiting for more details on the trade framework discussed. At 10:06 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 140.49 points, or 0.33%, to 42,725.28, the S&P 500 lost 5.58 points, or 0.09%, to 6,017.36 and the Nasdaq Composite lost 39.52 points, or 0.20%, to 19,576.35. Five of the 11 major [https://www.togeloleng.com/ sex] S&P 500 sub-sectors fell. Communication services dropped the most, with an about 0.7% decline, while utilities gained 0.8%. Alphabet declined 1.1%, while Nvidia nudged 0.3% higher. Among other movers, Oracle shares rose 12.1% after the cloud service provider raised its annual revenue growth forecast. U.S.-listed shares of gold miners also advanced, as bullion prices hit a one-week high. Newmont gained 2.4%, Harmony Gold was up 2.1% and AngloGold Ashanti rose 5.2%. After a tame consumer price report on Wednesday, softer-than-expected producer price data and largely unchanged initial jobless claims helped reduce investor jitters around tariff-driven price pressures. Traders are pricing in 53.7 basis points of rate cuts by year-end, per data compiled by LSEG. They are penciling in a 60% chance of a 25 bps cut in September, according to the CME Group's FedWatch tool. Policymakers are widely expected to keep rates unchanged next week. With investors increasingly expecting Trump to reach favorable trade agreements with several countries in the coming weeks, the benchmark S&P 500 index is just 2.1% below its record high touched in February. The tech-heavy Nasdaq is about 2.9% from record levels hit in December. Goldman Sachs trimmed its U.S. recession probability to 30% from 35% on easing uncertainty around Trump's tariff policies. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a 1.35-to-1 ratio on the NYSE and by a 2.03-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P 500 posted four new 52-week highs and three new lows while the Nasdaq Composite recorded 24 new highs and 39 new lows.

PDD Holdings slumps after quarterly revenue miss Oil companies up on supply disruption fears, Middle East tensions Boeing slips as NASA picks SpaceX over Starliner * Indexes: Dow up 0.02%, S&P 500 off 0.41%, Nasdaq down 0.94% (Updated at 11:47 a.m. ET/ 1547 GMT) By Johann M Cherian and Purvi Agarwal Aug 26 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq dropped in choppy trading on Monday, weighed by AI-favorite Nvidia ahead of its results later in the week, while markets awaited a key inflation report and cemented bets on an imminent interest-rate cut by the Federal Reserve. Nvidia dropped 2.3%, leading declines among chip stocks and sending the Philadelphia SE Semiconductor index down 2.5% ahead of the chip designer's highly anticipated earnings on Wednesday. The broader Technology sector also lost over 1%. Markets have been less forgiving this quarter of highly valued megacap stocks, which spearheaded the excitement around artificial intelligence. Nvidia's earnings will be scrutinized to justify the stock's more than 160% year-to-date jump, which pushed its market cap value to No. 2, just below Apple's, as of Friday's close. "Nvidia's on tap. People are taking a little money off the table, saying, well, we've earned some money," said Kim Forrest, chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners. "Their forecast for the next six months or so is probably the most important data that we get this week." Other growth names such as Tesla shed 3%, while Meta fell 1.4% and Apple lost 0.8%. At 11:47 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 10.14 points, or 0.02%, at 41,185.22, the S&P 500 was down 22.99 points, or 0.41%, at 5,611.62, and the Nasdaq Composite was down 168.87 points, or 0.94%, at 17,708.93. The Energy sector bucked the trend to rise 0.6%, as reports of oil supply disruptions amid the geopolitical conflict in the Middle East lifted crude prices. Other areas in the market, including financials stocks such as American Express and consumer staples such as Proctor & Gamble, also saw gains, limiting declines on the blue-chip Dow, which hit an intraday record high earlier in the day. The main indexes rallied more than 1% on Friday, with the benchmark S&P 500 nearing record highs after U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said "the time has come" to lower borrowing costs in the light of a diminishing upside risk to inflation and moderating labor demand. Traders are now [https://ajt-ventures.com/?s=betting betting] on either a 25-basis-point or a 50-basis-point rate cut in September. Odds of the former stand [https://www.togeloleng.com/ memek] at 67.5%, while odds of a 50-bps cut are at 34.5%, according to the [https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/CME%20Group%27s CME Group's] FedWatch tool. Friday's highly anticipated Personal Consumption Expenditure data for July, the central bank's preferred inflation gauge, could provide more insight into the policy easing trajectory. Results from Dell, Salesforce, Dollar General and Gap are also expected through the week. Among others, U.S.-listed shares of PDD Holdings sank 29.8% after the Temu-owner missed market expectations for second-quarter revenue. Boeing slipped 1.4% after NASA picked SpaceX over the planemaker's Starliner to return its astronauts from space next year. Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by a 1.41-to-1 ratio on the NYSE, and by a 1.19-to-1 ratio on the Nasdaq. The S&P index recorded 91 new 52-week highs and no new lows, while the Nasdaq recorded 127 new highs and 26 new lows. (Reporting by Johann M Cherian in Bengaluru; Editing by Pooja Desai)
