Dow components Merck (MRK 115.25, -12.53, -9.8%) and Procter & Gamble (PG 161.70, -8.23, -4.8%) were also influential losers after reporting earnings.Meanwhile, F5 Networks (FFIV 200.66, +23.07, +13.0%), Stanley Black & Decker (SWK 106.05, +9.62, +10.0%), and PayPal (PYPL 64.00, +5.06, +8.6%) were top-performing S&P 500 components after their quarterly reports.Market Breadth Market breadth favored advancers by a 3-to-2 margin at the NYSE, but decliners had a 4-to-3 lead over advancers at the Nasdaq.S&P 500 Sector Performance The performance of the S&P 500 sectors also reflected mixed action:Information Technology: -2.2% (weakest showing) Financial Sector: +1.2%Economic Data The equity and bond markets didn't react much to this morning's better-than-expected consumer confidence index for July. The 10-year note yield declined four basis points to 4.14%, and the 2-year note yield declined three basis points to 4.36%. This price action was ahead of tomorrow's release of the latest FOMC Statement, expected to set the stage for a rate cut in September.Year-to-Date Performance Nasdaq Composite: +14.2% S&P 500: +14.0% Russell 2000: +10.7% S&P Midcap 400: +10.7% Dow Jones Industrial Average: +8.1%Today's Economic Data May FHFA Housing Price Index: 0.0% (Prior revised to 0.3% from 0.2%) May S&P Case-Shiller Home Price Index: 6.8% (Consensus: 6.8%; Prior revised to 7.3% from 7.2%) July Consumer Confidence: 100.3 (Consensus: 99.8; Prior revised to 97.8 from 100.4) June JOLTS - Job Openings: 8.184 million (Prior revised to 8.230 million from 8.140 million)The key takeaway from the consumer confidence report is that consumers are starting to notice slowing labor market conditions, yet their overall assessment of the current labor market situation remains quite strong.Looking Ahead Wednesday's economic calendar features:Guru Stock PicksFairholme Fund has made the following transactions:Reduce in TSX:III by 17.19%Sold out in FMCCFairholme Focused Income Fund has made the following transactions:Reduce in BRK.B by 25%Add in OZK by 81.39%Warren Buffett has made the following transactions:Reduce in BAC by 1.88%Today's NewsMicrosoft (MSFT, Financial) shares fell nearly 7% in extended hours trading after reporting fiscal fourth-quarter results. Despite topping expectations with $2.95 per share earnings and a 15% revenue increase to $64.7B, Azure growth was weaker-than-expected. Azure revenue grew 29% year-over-year, missing the company’s forecast of 30%-31% growth. Total cloud-related revenue was $36.8B, slightly below the $36.84B estimate. Office Commercial revenue rose 12%, and Dynamics 365 saw a 19% increase.Pinterest (PINS, Financial) stock slid 15% following its second-quarter earnings report. The company beat revenue and profit expectations with $853.7M in revenue and a 46% increase in non-GAAP net income to $207.2M. However, its third-quarter guidance disappointed, forecasting 16%-18% growth, below analyst expectations of $909.5M. The company also projected adjusted operating expenses to rise 17%-20%.Advanced Micro Devices (AMD, Financial) reported Q2 Non-GAAP EPS of $0.69, beating estimates by $0.01, and revenue of $5.84B, surpassing expectations by $120M. The Data Center segment revenue hit a record $2.8 billion, up 115% year-over-year, driven by AMD Instinct GPU shipments and EPYC CPU sales. Client segment revenue increased 49% year-over-year, while Gaming segment revenue fell 59%. AMD expects Q3 revenue of approximately $6.7 billion, indicating a 16% year-over-year growth.Arista Networks (ANET, Financial) shares dipped 4.95% despite reporting Q2 Non-GAAP EPS of $2.10, beating estimates by $0.16, and revenue of $1.69B, which surpassed expectations by $40M.

Operating margin contracted to 21.0% from 21.7% due to increased wages and benefits.Lumen Technologies (LUMN, Financial) stock soared ~77%, extending its 13-day winning streak. The surge followed an agreement with Corning (GLW) to allocate 10% of its global fiber capacity to Lumen's new AI-enabled data center network. Lumen's stock has rebounded 154% since July 11 after a sharp decline in the first half of the year.W.P.
