Everything Happening Today (That We Know Of)

After notching its seventh record close in a row yesterday, does the S&P 500 have a ‘lucky #8’ up its sleeve today? With U.S. indexes down just a few basis points in futures trading, it’s anybody’s best guess.

The S&P 500 hasn’t been alone. On Monday, the Nasdaq and Russell 2000 also set fresh record closes, adding to a market rally that has become a topic of increased speculation. Nowhere is that more obvious than in the announcement of a partnership between Advanced Micro Devices  (AMD)  and ChatGPT creator OpenAI yesterday, solidifying the staying power of the AI trade.

It also comes in the absence of certain key economic data, which has been suspended as the government remains shut for a sixth consecutive day. However, a resolution might be taking form, as President Donald Trump suggested that Republicans could work with Democrats on a key issue to procure their votes and end the shutdown.

In the meantime, here are today’s highlights:

Economic Data & Events

Unlike yesterday, today we’ll have a few Fed speaking engagements this morning, while we also get to dip into data like the RCM/TIPP Economic Optimism Index (10:10 a.m. ET) and Consumer Credit Change (3:00 p.m. ET). At some point, we’ll also be getting refreshed numbers on Used Car Prices.

However, with the government shut, we’ll be missing out on Exports, Imports, and the Balance of Trade for August.

Here’s what to watch out for:

Earnings Today

Earnings season is finally just over the horizon, with the first reports of the third quarter just two days away. The first of the major earnings, from PepsiCo PEP, Delta DAL, and Levi Strauss & Co LEVI will be out Thursday.

Notably, today is not Thursday. As a result, we’ll only have one earnings report to pore over, from food firm McCormick & Company  (MKC) . It’s also just dropped in the last 30 minutes, showing results largely in line with investor expectations.
