U.S. stocks rebounded 🔴from their biggest weekly losses of the year to close solidly higher on Monday, in a broad-based recovery tha📖t saw each of the S&P 500 sectors rise. 

The S&P 500, Nasdaq Composite and Dow Jones Industrial Average each added 1.2%. The major indexes had tumbled on Friday after the August jobs report showed 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a continued weakening of the labor maඣrket, with a selloff in technology stocks sending the Nasdꦡaq to its worst weekly performance since January 2022.

Mega-cap tech stocks were mostly higher on Monday, with AI investor favorite Nvidia (NVDA) rising 3.5%, while Microsoft (MSFT), Meta Platforms (META) and Amazon (AMZN) also gained ground. Apple (AAPL) finished fractionally higher after the company unveiled its new iPhone 16 with AI capabilities and other product updates, while Alphabet (GOOGL) 🅷ended down 1.6% as a Google ♋headed to court in an antitrust trial that kicked off Monday.

Chip stocks, which 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:fell sharply on Friday, rose on Monday. The VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) gained 2.3%, as Arm Holdings (ARM) rose 7% and Broadcom (AVGO) added 2.8%, bouncing back fromꦚ a post-earnings plunge on Friday.

Boeing (BA) shares rose 3.4% after the aircraft manufacturer reached a tentative agreement with two of its unions, potentially averting a strike. Shares of big data analytics company Palantir (PLTR) and Dell (DELL) were up 14% and 3.8%, respectively, following news late Friday that the companies will be i🌃ncluded in the S&P 500 as of S🅰ept. 23.

The economic data calendar was light on Monday, ahead of the release later in the week of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:inflation data that will bꦗe closely monitored by the Federal Reserve as it considers cutting the influential fed funds rate for the first time in four years. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Fed Chair Jerome Powell and other central bank officials have signaled that rate cuts cou🌟ld come as soon as the Sept. 18 meeting of the central bank's polic🐻y committee, but they've stressed that incoming data will drive the decisions on the pace and depth of the easing.

Market participants are now pricing in a 29% chance that the Fed will cut the benchmark interest rate by half a percentage point next week, according to the 𝓰CME Group’s FedWatch tool, which foreꦓcasts rate movements based on fed funds futures trading data. The likelihood of a half-point cut had surged to over 50% on Friday after the weaker-than-expected August employment report, before falling throughout the course of the trading session.

The yield on 10-year Treasurys, which is sensitiveꦯ to expectations around interest rates, was little changed at around 3.70% on Monday. The yield had dropped as low as 3.65% aꩲfter the jobs report on Friday, its lowest level in more than a year.

Gold futures were up slightly on Monday at around $2,540 an ounce, while bitcoin ju🧜mped back near ༺$57,000, after falling below $53,000 late Friday.

S&P 500 Biggest Movers on Monday

September 09, 2024 06:09 PM EDT

Advancers

  • Shares of Super Micro Computer (SMCI) jumped 6.1%, notching Monday's top performance in the S&P 500. The stock recently came under pressure as short seller Hindenburg Research raised alarms about the server and data storage provider's accounting practices. But a report published Monday b, GlassHouse Research, a forensic accounting firm specializing in pinpointing fraudulent activities by public companies, downplayed Hindenburg's concerns.
  • Airline stocks moved higher following positive comments on the air travel industry from BofA Securities. According to analysts, the airlines are poised to benefit from moderating domestic capacity, stable demand, and reduced fuel costs. BofA also upgraded JetBlue (JBLU) stock to "neutral," citing the carrier's progress on its strategic initiatives, and JetBlue shares soared 7.2%. United Airlines (UAL) shares added 6% on the day, while Delta Air Lines (DAL) and American Air Lines (AAL) both advanced 3.9%.
  • Shares of human resources software provider Paycom Software (PAYC) were up 5.8%. With Monday's strong performance, the stock clawed back from a string of losses posted last week amid reports of CEO Chad Richison selling more than $600,000 worth of company stock. In its most recent earnings report, released at the end of July, recurring revenue growth helped Paycom beat profit expectations, leading the company to lift its full-year guidance and boost its stock buyback plan.

Decliners

  • Enphase Energy (ENPH) shares tumbled 5.2%, the biggest loss of any S&P 500 constituent. Although analysts have indicated that interest-rate cuts could benefit the solar technology firm's international expansion plans, Enphase stock remains down more than 20% in 2024.
  • Humana (HUM) shares fell 3.9% after investment bank Leerink Partners highlighted risks to the "Star ratings" of certain health care plans run by the insurer. The ratings assigned by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services affect insurance providers' eligibility for quality bonuses.
  • Shares of fragrance and personal care product retailer Bath & Body Works (BBWI) shares slipped 3.7%. The stock has been under pressure since the company lowered its sales guidance at the end of August, citing difficult consumer spending trends.

Airline Stocks Higher as BofA Upgrades JetBlue

September 09, 2024 05:37 PM EDT

Shares of major U.S. air carriers gained altitude on Monday after BofA Securities published upbeat comments on the industry and upgraded JetBlue Airways (JBLU) stock to "neutral" from "underperform."

JetBlue shares finished 7% higher Monday after the upgrade. Meanwhile, shares of rival United Airlines (UAL) were among the top performers in the S&P 500 on Monday, with a gain of 6%, as Delta Air Lines (DAL) and American Airlines (AAL) each added nearly 4%.

BofA said it believes the airlines are poised to benefit from an ongoing moderation in domestic capacity. Analysts expect domestic capacity growth to slow to ar⛎ound 2% in September through November, close to the slowest pace of the year and down from a peak of more than 6% in May and June.

Although airlines have struggled with pricing power this year, analysts say the capacity improvements—alongside expectations for stable demand—should help drive strong revenue trends across the industry. The possibility of lower fuel costs ahead represents another positive for the industry. Airlines might also be set for a seasonal uptick, as they tend to outperform in the fall.
