General Electric boosted the industrials sector, rising over 1% afterGoldman Sachs named the stock a top idea.\nThe market has churned out a series of record highs in recent weeks, but the gains have been relatively modest and some strategists have pointed to weak market breadth, measured by the performance of the average stock and the number of individual names making new highs, as a potential area of concern.\nOn Tuesday, there were slightly more declining stocks in the S&P 500 than those that rose during the session.\nHowever, the diminished breadth and volatility could simply be a natural pause during the summer months ahead of the busy earnings season in July, said Bill McMahon, the chief investment officer for active equity strategies at Charles Schwab Investment Management.\n\"I think people are in a little bit of a wait-and-see mode, so it's not surprising to see volatility decline and breadth worsen a tad,\" McMahon said, adding that concern about the spreading Delta variant of Covid-19 could also be weighing on stocks.\nShares of Morgan Stanley jumped more than 3% after the bank said it willdouble its quarterly dividend.

The Nasdaq is pacing for its seventh positive month in the last eight. The Dow, however, is in the red for the month, and on track to snap a four-month winning streak.\nSo far in 2021, the S&P 500 has added 14%, while the Nasdaq has added more than 12% with the Dow close behind.\nJPMorgan quantitative strategist Dubravkos Lakos-Bujas said on CNBC's \"Squawk Box\" that the market appeared to have near-term upside.\n\"The growth policy backdrop in our opinion still remains supportive for risk assets in general, certainly including equities. At the same time, the positioning is not really stretched to where we are in a problematic territory. So we do think there is still a runway. ...

When a company issues a warning like Clover Health just did, the smart thing to do is to listen and take that warning seriously.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":421,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":153599779,"gmtCreate":1625031707891,"gmtModify":1703850564940,"author":{"id":"4087727898203950","authorId":"4087727898203950","name":"rhxyq","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087727898203950","authorIdStr":"4087727898203950"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/153599779","repostId":"1122418477","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1122418477","pubTimestamp":1625008161,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1122418477?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-30 07:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tech stocks propel S&P 500, Nasdaq to fresh highs","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1122418477","media":"CNBC","summary":"The S&P 500 notched another record high on Tuesday amid bullish economic data but retreated toward the flat line later in the session as Wall Street continued its recent period of low volatility.The broad market index ticked up less than 0.1% to 4,291.80, good enough for its fourth-straight record close.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite added about 0.2% for its own record of 14,528.33.\nHomebuilder stocks moved higher after S&P Case-Shiller saidhome prices rose more than 14% in Aprilcompared to the prior year.

General Electric boosted the industrials sector, rising over 1% afterGoldman Sachs named the stock a top idea.\nThe market has churned out a series of record highs in recent weeks, but the gains have been relatively modest and some strategists have pointed to weak market breadth, measured by the performance of the average stock and the number of individual names making new highs, as a potential area of concern.\nOn Tuesday, there were slightly more declining stocks in the S&P 500 than those that rose during the session.\nHowever, the diminished breadth and volatility could simply be a natural pause during the summer months ahead of the busy earnings season in July, said Bill McMahon, the chief investment officer for active equity strategies at Charles Schwab Investment Management.\n\"I think people are in a little bit of a wait-and-see mode, so it's not surprising to see volatility decline and breadth worsen a tad,\" McMahon said, adding that concern about the spreading Delta variant of Covid-19 could also be weighing on stocks.\nShares of Morgan Stanley jumped more than 3% after the bank said it willdouble its quarterly dividend. The bank also announced a $12 billion stock buyback program. The announcement follows last week's stress tests by the Federal Reserve, which all 23 major banks passed.

The Nasdaq is pacing for its seventh positive month in the last eight. The Dow, however, is in the red for the month, and on track to snap a four-month winning streak.\nSo far in 2021, the S&P 500 has added 14%, while the Nasdaq has added more than 12% with the Dow close behind.\nJPMorgan quantitative strategist Dubravkos Lakos-Bujas said on CNBC's \"Squawk Box\" that the market appeared to have near-term upside.\n\"The growth policy backdrop in our opinion still remains supportive for risk assets in general, certainly including equities. At the same time, the positioning is not really stretched to where we are in a problematic territory. So we do think there is still a runway. ... The summer period, the next two months, is where I think the market continues to break out,\" the strategist said.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":153598228,"gmtCreate":1625031973964,"gmtModify":1703850569633,"author":{"id":"4087727898203950","authorId":"4087727898203950","name":"rhxyq","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4087727898203950","authorIdStr":"4087727898203950"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Very nice haha","listText":"Very nice haha","text":"Very nice haha","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/153598228","repostId":"1108987496","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1108987496","pubTimestamp":1625014462,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1108987496?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-30 08:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Is Apple Stock A Buy Before Its June-Quarter Earnings Report?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108987496","media":"investors","summary":"Apple(AAPL) saw its shares jump into record high territory ahead of the consumer electronics giant's","content":"<p><b>Apple</b>(AAPL) saw its shares jump into record high territory ahead of the consumer electronics giant's December-quarter earnings report.

Services include the App Store, AppleCare, iCloud, Apple Pay, Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and other offerings.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile,Apple is facing antitrust scrutinyin the U.S. and Europe for its App Store policies, including its 30% commission fee. On Nov. 18,Apple cut its commission rateto 15% for small developers, possibly to appease regulators. But Apple stock trended down in the days after that news.</p>\n<p>On April 30, the antitrust commission of theEuropean Union issued preliminary charges against Applein a case initiated by a complaint from <b>Spotify Technology</b>(SPOT). The European Commission accused Apple of abusing its dominant position in the distribution of apps through its App Store. Apple stock fell 1.5% on the news.</p>\n<p>In May, Apple defended itself in U.S. federal court in a case brought by Epic Games, which accused the tech giant of anticompetitive business practices with its App Store. The judge in the case will make a ruling sometime in the next few months.</p>\n<p>The company'sregulatory and legal concerns are an overhang over Apple stock, Wedbush Securities says.</p>\n<p><b>Apple Raises U.S. Investment Spending</b></p>\n<p>Apple's Wearables, Home and Accessories unit saw sales increase 25% to $7.8 billion in the March quarter. This unit includes wearables like the Apple Watch, AirPods wireless earbuds and Beats headphones.

AAPL stock has declined since the company's fiscal first-quarter earnings report.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Apple is increasing its investments in U.S. manufacturing, research and development, and job creation. On April 26,Apple pledged to spend $430 billionover the next five years to create 20,000 new jobs in the U.S. The company said it is outpacing its original five-year goal of $350 billion in U.S. investments set in 2018.</p>\n<p>The investments include a new campus in North Carolina as well as research and development in 5G wireless, artificial intelligence and semiconductor technology.

The work-from-home and school-at-home trends driven by the Covid-19 pandemic fueled the gains in both product categories.</p>\n<p>Apple did not issue specific guidance for the June quarter, citing market uncertainties related to the coronavirus pandemic. However, the company said it expects amore dramatic seasonal sales declinefrom the March quarter to the June quarter than in prior years.
