To The Moon

Stocks staged a strong rebound Tuesday, clawing back much of Monday’s tariff-driven losses.

• Dow Jones Industrial Average: +0.8%

• $S&P 500(.SPX)$ : +0.8%

• Nasdaq Composite: +1.0%

• Hot Stock: Keysight Technologies (+23%) Biggest Loser: Expeditors International of Washington (-7.2%)

  Best Sector: Consumer Discretionary (+1.6%) Worst Sector: Health Care (-0.5%)

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both finished just slightly below Friday’s closing levels, suggesting markets are stabilizing after recent trade volatility.

Sector Performance: Tech Regains Control

Leadership rotated back toward growth.

Consumer discretionary, industrials, technology, and utilities each gained more than 1%, while energy and healthcare lagged. Tech stocks once again stole the spotlight.

AMD - Meta Deal Lifts AI Sentiment

$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ surged after announcing a long-term agreement to supply $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ with six gigawatts of GPUs.

As part of the deal:

• AMD granted Meta a performance-based warrant

• The warrant could convert into up to 160 million AMD shares

• That represents roughly a 10% stake

The scale of the partnership reinforces continued hyperscaler AI investment despite broader market jitters. Meanwhile, $Apple(AAPL)$ said it will expand U.S. manufacturing by producing the Mac Mini in Houston, adding another positive headline for domestic tech investment.

Anthropic Eases AI Disruption Fears

Markets also reacted positively to messaging from Anthropic during its Enterprise Agents briefing.

Rather than signaling displacement of enterprise software firms, Anthropic emphasized “partnerships over conflict,” demonstrating integrations between its Claude AI agent and:

• $FactSet Research(FDS)$

• WordPress

• LegalZoom

• Google Drive

That messaging helped calm fears that AI model providers will immediately wipe out incumbent software businesses. Analysts noted increased confidence that software companies are more likely to collaborate with AI leaders than be displaced outright.

Nvidia Earnings: The Next Big Catalyst

$NVDA

All eyes now turn to $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ , which reports earnings Wednesday after the close.

With AI sentiment fragile and valuations elevated, Nvidia’s results could:

• Reinforce bullish momentum

• Trigger renewed volatility

• Reset expectations for the broader semiconductor sector

Given recent swings, the reaction may matter more than the headline numbers.

Trump’s State of the Union in Focus

Markets are also watching Trump’s annual State of the Union address.

The speech is expected to:

• Highlight stock market strength

• Emphasize inflation progress

• Address tariff policy following the recent Supreme Court of the United States ruling

• Outline additional economic initiatives

Trade policy remains politically sensitive, with public polling showing tariffs among the administration’s least popular measures…

Any signals about future tariff escalation, or moderation, could move markets overnight…

What Traders Should Watch Next

Key catalysts ahead:

• Nvidia earnings

• Software results from Salesforce and Snowflake

• Political signals from the State of the Union

• Ongoing tariff implementation details
