Good MorningEquity markets retreat on Tuesday to open a holiday-shortened week on uncertain footing. The move comes despite better-than-expected earnings from Walmart and Home Depot that left investors uncertain of what to expect in 2024. Both reports were better than expected, but only one was good. Walmart is growing while outperforming; Home Depot is contracting despite the outperformance and issued weak guidance. The takeaway is that consumer spending habits continue to shift away from big tickets and large projects to daily and essentials, a trend that will be seen elsewhere in the sector.
However, the big news will come out on Wednesday evening. NVIDIA is expected to report a high triple-digit increase in sales, which may outperform expectations and provide favorable guidance. If not, the market will continue to correct as it resets the astronomical expectations priced into the stock. NVIDIA fell 5% in Tuesday's action to lead the broad market lower.
