US stocks rebounded on Monday, with the S&P 500 snapping a six-day losing streak as investors braced for a rush of Big Tech earnings.
The S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose 0.9% to climb back above 5,000 after closing below the key level on Friday for the first time since February. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) added 0.7%, or more than 200 points. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) also gained 1.1% as AI darling Nvidia (NVDA) rebounded by adding than 4%.
Hopes are now resting on Big Tech earnings this week to reassure and reignite the market. On deck are quarterly reports from Meta (META), Microsoft (MSFT), and Alphabet (GOOG).
The focus Monday was on Tesla (TSLA) as the EV maker cut prices in the US, China, and several other countries. Tesla will report quarterly results on Tuesday after the market close. The Elon Musk-led company has already unsettled some investors with its robotaxi push and decision to have shareholders vote again on Musk’s rejected pay package. Tesla shares lost 3.4%.
Meanwhile, the debate over the Federal Reserve’s stance on rate cuts continued to rumble after Chair Jerome Powell and fellow policymakers turned more hawkish last week in the face of persistent inflation. Given that, minds are already turning toward Friday’s release of the PCE index — the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge — as critical to assessing whether rates will stay higher for longer.
