Stocks surged across the board on Tuesday, gaining momentum after Monday’s rebound as unexpectedly weak economic data bolstered hopes for a potential Federal Reserve rate cut by the end of the summer.
What Happened: The S&P Global’s Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) for April indicated a significant deceleration in private sector growth—the slowest in four months—also highlighting reduced inflationary pressures from wages and services.
Market-implied probabilities for a rate cut by the Fed as early as September jumped to 72%, up from 67% on Monday, according to CME Group’s FedWatch Tool.
Meanwhile, corporate earnings have generally exceeded expectations, with investors now eagerly anticipating results from Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA), slated for release after market close.
By midday trading in New York, the S&P 500 climbed 1.2%, setting the stage for its best performance in over a month. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed the broader market, up 1.5%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average saw a more modest increase of 0.6%.
The iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:IWM) outperformed its large-cap counterparts, jumping 1.7% and marking its most significant gain since late March.
The dollar declined by 0.4%, and Treasury yields slightly fell. In the commodities market, gold remained steady following its sharpest drop in years on Monday, while oil prices inched 1% higher. Bitcoin edged down slightly by 0.3% to $66,640.
