Discovery, and More Pre-Market Stock Futures: Futures are trading higher as we head into the busiest week of the second quarter earnings season
More than 30% (over 150 companies) of the S&P 500 are scheduled to report earnings this week. Key highlights include reports from four of the Magnificent 7 companies. The major indices closed split on Friday, with the Dow Jones Industrials posting a solid 0.46% gain to finish the week at 51,974, while the S&P 500 eked out a small gain of 0.05% to finish the session at 7,411.
The Nasdaq once again took a hit from chip stock selling, closing at 24,978, down 0.64%. The small-cap Russell 2000, which remains the leading index this year, up 17.6%, was last seen at 2,930, down 0.34% on the day. With oil plunging after the U.S. and Iran agreed to halt attacks, we are poised for a strong start to this busy earnings week.
