Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
US stocks are expected to open lower following the Independence Day holiday, with traders cautious due to major averages trading at multi-month highs. Despite a weak manufacturing reading, US stocks closed slightly higher on Monday. Noteworthy sector performances included advancements in consumer discretionary stocks, along with buying interest in utility, financial, real estate, and consumer staple stocks. However, healthcare and IT stocks experienced declines. Fundstrat's Tom Lee expects the S&P 500 Index to end the year at 4,825, up from his earlier estimate of 4,750.
