After closing at or near record highs yesterday, Wall Street braces for Delta results and a Fed governor's speech. Fed minutes showed willingness to consider rate cuts this year.
The week started on a slow note following the holiday with investors nervous about tariffs and the start of earnings. Fed minutes later today could provide some color on rates.
A 3-year Treasury auction today and a 10-year note auction tomorrow, along with Wednesday's Fed minutes, could drive stocks after Monday's drop. Tariffs remain front and center.
The earnings bar is fairly low for the second quarter, setting companies up for a potential easy jump—but there will likely be more focus on forward guidance.
Well-rested investors will try to build on last Thursday’s better-than-expected jobs report. However, Trump’s tariff deadline and national debt concerns loom over markets.
