Stocks On Shaky Ground As Traders Tread Lightly Ahead of Friday's Jobs Data: What's Driving Markets Thursday?
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
The US stock market is expected to open slightly lower on Thursday, following a recovery on Wednesday. The dollar and crude oil are surging in tandem, which could impact economies, industries, and consumers. This could challenge corporate profits, especially for US exporters and multinationals, as higher oil prices increase costs and a stronger dollar makes their products less competitive. In premarket trading, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) edged down 0.07% and the Invesco QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:QQQ) edged up 0.01%. Stocks in focus include Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI), The Clorox Company (NYSE:CLX), Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:RIVN), Conagra Brands, Inc. (NYSE:CAG), Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE:STZ), and Levi Strauss & Co. (NYSE:LEVI).
