It's Spooky Season!
Key Weekly Performance Stats:
- S&P 500: -0.27%
- Nasdaq 100: +0.65%
- Russel 2000: -0.23%
- Bitcoin: %
Wall Street kicked off October with a mixed week. SPX and RTY finished slightly lower, while NDX gained ground and closed Friday at a record high. Rising yields and oil pressured stocks early, with U.S.-Iran tensions also hanging over the market. Sentiment improved into Friday as softer jobs data eased some of the pressure around future Fed hikes.
The economic picture stayed mixed. September payroll growth came in weak, unemployment ticked higher, and prior months were revised down. Consumer confidence also fell, but spending remained solid and inflation stayed sticky. On the corporate side, Micron impressed with strong AI-driven guidance, Tesla beat delivery expectations, Nvidia pushed to new highs, and Nike disappointed with weaker results and outlook.
Next week is lighter on the calendar. ISM Services is Monday, U.S. trade data Tuesday, Fed minutes Wednesday, jobless claims Thursday, and preliminary Michigan consumer sentiment Friday. Earnings also start picking up with Levi Strauss, PepsiCo, and Delta on deck. As always, stick to your trading plan and respect your risk. Godspeed.
