To The Moon

On the last trading day of October, the S&P closed up, but the monthly line fell for three consecutive months, the longest monthly decline since the outbreak of the pandemic.

The new wave of earnings news triggered a different reaction in the market. Caterpillar and Amgen, known as the "canary in the boom", underperformed after their earnings reports, while Pinterest and Arista Networks enjoyed huge gains after their latest results.

On the data front, the U.S. consumer confidence index fell to a five-month low in October, falling for the third month in a row, weighed down by a gloomy outlook for business conditions and consumer concerns about high prices, and consumers' inflation expectations for the next 12 months rose sharply.

On the political and economic front, markets await the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) interest rate decision on Wednesday, followed by Apple's latest earnings and the Bank of England policy decision on Thursday.
