The major indexes rose slightly Monday as AI and chips shrugged off higher oil prices as Trump said Iran ceasefire "on life support."
There was a lot that could have made the stock market fall. Investors shrugged off questions about when—or even if—the Federal Reserve would cut interest rates again this year after the central bank held rates steady, and they ignored the fact that Jerome Powell plans to stay on the Fed’s Board of Governors even as Kevin Warsh prepares to become chair. Inflation came in hot as oil prices continued to rise, and earnings from Microsoft and Meta Platforms revealed sizable capital spending increases—and resulted in falling stocks. Eli Lilly earnings offered evidence that weight-loss drugs were only getting bigger; Coca-Cola’s beat showed that not all soft-drink makers are suffering from an Ozempic overhang; Alphabet’s capital spending paid off with big profits; and Caterpillar’s numbers demonstrated that there’s more to its business than mining and machinery.
