The S&P 500 notched an intraday record of 5,505.53 last week, registering a 0.6% weekly advance, while the Nasdaq was flat and the Dow Jones rose 1.45%. Technology stocks continue to be in the spotlight, with one single stock, Nvidia, having a huge influence on the whole stock market. Though, some signs of an overextended market have begun to appear recently - it is unclear whether the artificial intelligence-fueled rally has reached its limits just yet.
Economic reports from last week came back mixed:
•Manufacturing (New York) - higher than expectation
•Manufacturing (Philadelphia) - lower than expectation
•Retail Sales - lower than expectation
•New Residential Construction - lower than expectation
•Existing Home Sales - higher than expectation
•Jobless Claims - higher than expectation
This week, investors will look for guidance from economic reports like Manufacturing, Housing, Consumer Confidence & Sentiment, Personal Income and Jobless Claims.
