US open: Stocks mostly higher as traders look ahead to tech earnings
(Sharecast News) - Major indices mostly traded higher early on Monday as market participants looked ahead to a number of big-name earnings and major macro points scheduled for release later in the week. As of 1540 BST, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.39% at 40,270.80, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.08% to 5,529.67 and the Nasdaq Composite came out of the gate 0.13% softer at 17,360.87.
The Dow opened 157.30 points higher on Monday, extending modest gains recorded in the previous session but leaving the blue-chip index on a course for a monthly loss in April.
Investors will be zeroed in on quarterly earnings reports from "Magnificent Seven" tech giants Amazon, Apple, Meta Platforms and Microsoft this week, as well as numbers from the likes of soft-drinks behemoth Coca-Cola, credit card services firm Visa and drugmaker Eli Lilly.
Also of note, the S&P 500 was on track to deliver its worst performance over the first 100 days of a new presidency in more than half a century, with the index down almost 8% since Trump's inauguration on 20 January despite his promise of a "boom like no other" amid ongoing tariff uncertainty, mass layoffs of Federal employees, and an aggressive stance on undocumented workers.
On the macro front for Monday, the Dallas Federal Reserve's manufacturing business index decreased to -35.80 in April, down from -16.30 in March.
Later this week, attention will be on Wednesday's Q1 GDP reading and March's personal consumption expenditures index, the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, while Friday's non-farm payrolls data will likely be the week's primary focus.
