Nvidia shares rise up to 1.4% and reach a new all-time high. Meanwhile, Amazon, Alphabet and Meta Platforms decline, in a week marked by few operations before the holiday on Wednesday.
He S&P 500 It barely registers any changes this Monday, in a short start to the week due to holidays in both Argentina and the United States. The general index loses only 0.1%, while the Nasdaq Composite remains close to the flat line. The Dow Jones Industrial Average falls 70 points or 0.2%.
“ANDWe are waiting for tomorrow’s retail sales“said Mona Mahajan, investment strategist at Edward Jones. “The Fed and inflation were certainly positive for the markets. “It’s nice to see the disinflation trend resuming after a few months of hotter-than-expected inflation prints.”
Amazon, Alphabet and Meta Platforms decline slightly. Verizon led the Dow’s losses, down 1.7%. Last week, the main averages were mixed: the Dow posted its third week of losses in four years, while the S&P and the Nasdaq reached all-time highs and recorded their seventh bullish week in the last eight.
As Wall Street enters a trading week with cuts, with the markets closed on Wednesday for the June 19 holiday, Investors will assess the sustainability of the current rally and whether it can continue. Mahajan notes that even in previous bull markets, price appreciation does not typically move in a straight line, adding that two to three corrections are typical in any given trading year.
“Overall, the fundamentals and backdrop remain favorable, but corrections can be expected along the way,” he said. Investors are watching retail sales data for May, due out on Tuesday, as well as home sales.
