updates: The Nasdaq 100 is poised to snap a 5-month winning streak by Tuesday's close. Wall Street indices tend to rise between May and September, while European and APAC indices tend to decline. Returns in May are skewed to the upside, with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 outperforming. Stock markets have not been following their seasonal patterns this month. Asset managers remain net long on futures contracts. The Nasdaq 100 futures chart suggests a potential pullback. The bias is for the Nasdaq to top out this week. Asset managers do not seem ready to throw in the towel on a bullish stock market. Unless the wheels fall off of the US economy.

Version 1.27 (2024-04-27 04:57:07.822000)

updates: Investors are punishing companies that have reported disappointing earnings, despite strong reports from Microsoft and Google parent Alphabet. The S&P 500 is up about 7% in 2024 and some 24% since late October. Companies that have missed earnings estimates have had their shares lag by a median of 4%, the biggest such underperformance for misses in at least eight years. More earnings are expected from Amazon and Apple in the coming week. The market's nearly unabated run higher over the past six months has made investors less forgiving of earnings setbacks. The S&P 500 trades at 20 times forward earnings estimates, well above its historic average of 15.7. Rising Treasury yields and inflation have also raised uncertainty about stocks. Overall, 78% of S&P 500 companies have topped analysts' earnings estimates for the first quarter, with earnings on pace for a 5.6% rise from a year earlier.

Version 1.21 (2024-04-26 20:51:43.356000)

updates: Alphabet and Microsoft reported strong earnings, helping Wall Street achieve its best week in nearly 6 months. The S&P 500 rallied 1% to finish its first winning week in the last four. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.4%, and the Nasdaq composite jumped 2%. Alphabet's stock leaped 10.2% after beating analysts' profit expectations and announcing a dividend and stock buyback program. Microsoft climbed 1.8% after reporting stronger profit and revenue than expected, citing growth in its cloud-computing business. Intel, however, saw a 9.2% drop in its stock after reporting weaker revenue than expected. Inflation remains a concern, with the Federal Reserve expecting only one rate cut this year. Treasury yields eased following a report on inflation, and economists expect inflation to cool in the coming months. The S&P 500 rose 51.54 points to 5,099.96, the Dow added 153.86 to 38,239.66, and the Nasdaq gained 316.14 to 15,927.90. [56635b8a]
