U.S. stocks are expected to extend gains as the Federal Reserve's two-day monetary policy meeting begins. Smid-cap earnings have been better than expected, triggering a strong upward move in premarket trading. However, sentiment towards mega-caps remains muted. The Dow Industrials posted its biggest one-day advance since early June, with the S&P 500 moving out of correction territory. Analysts from LPL Financial expect a strong job market, cooling inflation, the end of Fed rate hikes, stable interest rates, and growing corporate profits to keep the bull market going. In premarket trading, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) rose 0.24% and the Invesco QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:QQQ) edged up 0.08%.
