One aspect of the markets in 2022 that’s different from the past five years is that when Wall Street used to rally off lows, volatility would collapse… And you wouldn’t have a big drawdown for weeks or even months at a time.
For example, we rallied hard last week… only to have the market take a big dump on Friday with the Nasdaq falling almost 2% on the day.
Even with Friday’s sell-off, markets still closed firmly higher for the week with the Russell 2000 and Nasdaq both up over 4%.
Which leaves us with the billion-dollar question: now what?
There’s A TON of information to chew on this week with many market-moving catalysts looming.
The broader indexes rose Monday morning ahead of a busy earnings week with a Federal Reserve interest rate decision also looming.
About one-third of the companies in the S&P 500 are set to report, making it the biggest week of earnings season so far.
Tech titans Alphabet and Microsoft report Tuesday along with Coca-Cola and General Motors. Ford and Meta report on Wednesday, with consumers favorites Amazon and Apple on Thursday.
Earnings reports aren’t going to be the only drivers of market action this week — investors are also waiting to hear from the Federal Reserve on Wednesday. With inflation still high, the markets expect another 0.75% hike to the central bank’s benchmark interest rate.
We’ll also get reports on gross domestic product on Thursday and consumer sentiment on Friday, which will give us key information about the health of the U.S. economy.
