US Stocks Brace For Another Day In The Red As Rally Loses Steam: Analyst Sees Market Pullback On This Indicator
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
U.S. stocks are expected to face another day of declines as the recent rally loses momentum, despite some positive tech earnings. Concerns about overbought levels and Federal Reserve's stance on interest rates have prompted caution. The S&P 500 and Dow Industrials retreated from record levels, with most sectors except healthcare experiencing declines. Analysts predict a potential pullback for the S&P 500, citing overbought conditions and negative divergence in market breadth. Premarket trading saw SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ ETF with minor adjustments. Several companies, including Rambus, Palantir Technologies, and J&J Snack Foods, moved significantly on earnings news.
