We Could Be In for the Wildest Session In Weeks

by Tony Rago

Last trading day of July and more earnings on tap! Big moves yesterday with FOMC that created a big dip buy into Meta Platforms, Inc. (META) and Microsoft (MSFT) earnings. More earnings at the close today with Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL).

We have some econ this morning in the first 30 minutes of trade so stay on your toes. This could be a rowdy day in the markets so lets take it one trade at a time.

Also payroll numbers tomorrow so still a lot of data to hit the tape!

Lets crush it!
