Ed Siddell expects at least 50 basis points in rate cuts by the end of the year. He foresees a market pullback in October but thinks the SPX could be close to $6,600 by the end of the year and anticipates a bull market for the next few years. “We still like AI, we still like tech,” he adds, favoring Alphabet (GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT), along with financials and small caps.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Eddie Yoon breaks down the latest data on the consumer, citing flat PCE and disposable income growth despite inflation headwinds. He believes the 2% inflation rate is "far behind us," and 3% will become the new normal, driven in part by surging energy costs and AI-driven demand. Yoon also notes the potential for a consumer backlash against big tech companies like Microsoft (MSFT), which are driving up energy costs while cutting high-paying jobs. He sees a generational shift in spending habits, with younger consumers favoring experiences and sustainable living over traditional categories like alcohol, which could spell trouble for companies like Boston Beer Company (SAM) and Brown Forman (BF/B).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Greg Dukes sees a strong finish for the market, driven by the "big beautiful bill" and leadership from big tech. He expects the Fed to cut rates 25-50 basis points in September, with a 50/50 chance of another cut by year-end. Dukes is bullish on Microsoft (MSFT), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), and Alphabet (GOOGL), and likes international plays like Toyota (TM) and Sony (SONY).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Eric Clark discusses why he's still constructive on the market despite recent volatility. He's bullish on consumer stocks, particularly those with strong e-commerce exposure, citing names like Meta Platforms (META), Shopify (SHOP), and Ulta Beauty (ULTA). Clark likes companies with AI capabilities, such as Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), and ServiceNow (NOW), and believes they will continue to benefit from the AI deployment trend. He also sees opportunities in the housing market, specifically in home improvement companies like Lowe's (LOW) and Home Depot (HD), and in retailers like TJX Companies (TJX).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Austin Lyons says the Mag 7 continue to dominate market leadership, though it's becoming more fragmented. As companies like Apple (AAPL) and Tesla (TSLA) play catch up, Austin poses the question to investors, "is there anywhere else that's better to put your money in the A.I. trade?" While he like Apple's tech ecosystem and Tesla's future prospects, he favors Microsoft (MSFT) currently as Azure cloud growth accelerates. On the chip trade, he talks about Intel (INTC) "getting back to their roots" and AMD Inc.'s (AMD) recent comeback as both companies vie for a piece of Nvidia's (NVDA) market share.

Lisa Martin calls the post-earnings sell-off in CoreWeave (CRWV) "overblown." She calls the company's backlog and current partnerships with the likes of Nvidia (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT) and OpenAI predominantly bullish for its outlook. However, Stephanie Walter sees the company running into massive headwinds when it comes to competition, which includes other hyperscalers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

CoreWeave (CRWV) has tripled in its stock price ever since its March IPO. While the company has the backing of Nvidia (NVDA) as a shareholder and Microsoft (MSFT) as a key customer, Marley Kayden notes the stock's massive rally can work against it in earnings. Tim Biggam gives investors an example options trade for CoreWeave ahead of its report.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

"Focus is on core CPI," says Chris Versace. He believes the question facing the Fed and investors will be "how much hotter than expected is the number?" Chris believes a higher number could mean the Fed would be closer to cutting rates which means "bad news is good news" for some in the markets. On the earnings front, he's watching CoreWeave (CRWV) this week as the company continues to demonstrate strong ties to megacap tech companies like Nvidia (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT) and Alphabet (GOOGL). He says guidance will be key given the significant capex spending from hyperscalers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Ivana Delevska says there was a time you could group the Mag 7 together, but that's no longer the case. The "bifurcation" of stories is something she believes is important all investors pay attention to. She makes the case that power generation and A.I. infrastructure companies will support Mag 7 growth. Austin Lyons sees Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) leading the cloud space, while Alphabet (GOOGL) makes the case for using generative A.I. in search. However, both agree that Nvidia (NVDA) remains at the center of it all.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Nigam Arora returns to Market on Close to discuss some of the biggest tech moves he's watching in the market. He's impressed with Microsoft (MSFT) continuing to beat "very high" expectations in Azure cloud and Copilot. On Palantir (PLTR), Nigam outlines the company's path to reaching $1 trillion in market cap. While he sees the current price-to-sales ratio as unsustainable, he says Palantir is "so deeply embedded" in the U.S. government that it has a "sticky" source of revenue even if its commercial business wavers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Private tech companies going public have accelerated in recent months, seen in debuts like CoreWeave (CRWV) and Circle (CRCL). Christian Munafo talks about what's driving the pace in demand for tech IPOs and why larger companies like SpaceX and Databricks are taking their time. He adds that mega caps like Alphabet (GOOGL) and Microsoft (MSFT) are continually searching for innovation, and Christian says they often pluck companies from the IPO basket.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Lucas Downey notes that late summer usually sees liquidity dry up, which in turn can cause bouts of volatility. He likes Palantir (PLTR), Meta (META), Microsoft (MSFT), which have performed well after earnings and guidance.

Amit Walia, CEO of Informatica (INFA), talks about what he calls a "blow out" quarter in earnings, particularly through its cloud business. He talks about how the report shows the importance of A.I. and its role for Salesforce's (CRM) Agentforce platform. Informatica was acquired by Salesforce in May for $8 billion. Amit later notes the company's hyperscaler partnerships through Amazon (AMZN) AWS, Microsoft (MSFT), and mostly recently, Nvidia (NVDA).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Ben Emons talks all things A.I. He points to OpenAI's valuation bid that could propel it as the highest valued private company as reason enough to keep evolving tech top of mind. Ben believes the company can become highly profitable if it maintains its open source LLMs once it goes public. On the hardware side, Ben sees robotics as a long-term growth industry as Nvidia (NVDA) continues to mass produce chips. He later explains the Mag 7's role in the ecosystem and why he likes Microsoft (MSFT) among the group.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Earnings season has been great so far, but “uneven,” Howard Chan notes, “Most of the growth is actually coming from large, technology-focused companies.” He likes “consumer-forward tech” companies like Netflix (NFLX) and Uber (UBER) and AI infrastructure companies like semiconductor maker Nvidia (NVDA) and cloud service providers such as Microsoft (MSFT), where “demand outstrips supply.” While some are worried about market concentration in only a few names, he argues that big tech are global companies with global demand. He's also bullish on smaller chipmakers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Marley Kayden takes investors through the morning's biggest movers, which included Hims & Hers (HIMS) sliding more than 10% after its earnings. Its revenue miss led to the selling action despite the company expanding its footprint overseas. Meanwhile, Pfizer (PFE) rallied after it beat and raised EPS guidance for 2025.

Daniel Rubino dives into this week's big tech earnings and says Microsoft (MSFT) displayed a strong position for future A.I. growth. He says the breakout Azure numbers show "confidence" from the company's leadership as it attempts to gain market share against Amazon's AWS.

Jed Ellerbroek breaks down big tech earnings with an eye towards AI capex, which he says “far exceeds expectations.” He compares Amazon (AMZN) earnings, which were mixed, to rivals Microsoft (MSFT) and Alphabet (GOOGL), and thinks it's a buy on today's sell-off. On healthcare, he notes that expectations have been set lower as the sector continues to underperform. He thinks it will remain a weaker area of the market.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

S&P Futures are showing strong gains this morning after outstanding earnings from Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META), both of which delivered results that surpassed expectations. Outside of tech, a majority of companies have delivered mixed or disappointing results. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell came across as hawkish in his press conference yesterday and indicated that the Fed is looking past the tariff situation by not raising rates. President Trump announced a trade deal with S. Korea. An agreement with Mexico remains fluid while an agreement with Canada appears unlikely. A federal appeal court will begin hearing oral arguments today on President Trumps claim that economic emergencies allow him the right to impose tariffs. The key economic data point for today will be the PCE report due out in the pre-market. On the earnings front, MSFT, META, WDC, EBAY & CVNA are higher after announcements. RACE, ARM, LRCX, WCOM, BUD, F, & HOOD are lower. After the bell today are earnings reports from AAPL, AMZN, KLAC, COIN, NET, ROKU, and RDDT.

Chris Versace joins Morning Movers to discuss the latest labor market data and GDP print. On the ADP data, he says it was a "good report" for the economy but says investors looking for a rate cut might not see it the same way. Jerome Powell and the FOMC announce their latest rate decision later today, and Chris believes the report gives the Fed more "wiggle room" to wait on cutting rates. He believes it'll be a wait-and-see environment as trade deals take shape, thinking the rate cut odds could shift to October's FOMC meeting instead of September.
