After another frenetic week in the markets, investors are preparing on Monday to step into a new five-day stretch that might get even busier, with a ream of Big Tech earnings, a Fed decision, and rapidly worsening conditions in the Middle East all front and center.
The S&P 500 (^GSPC) closed out Friday 0.1% in the green, for a loss of 0.6% on the week. The Dow (^DJI) gained 0.6% on Friday to close the week 0.4% down, while the Nasdaq (^IXIC) slid 0.6% on Friday, for a weekly loss of 2.1%.
Earnings from four of the "Magnificent Seven" Big Tech leaders headline the week: Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META) on Wednesday, then Apple (AAPL) and Amazon.com (AMZN) on Thursday.
As was true for earnings last week from Alphabet and Tesla, there's one big question looming over the Magnificent Seven's second quarter reports: How much are you spending, and, crucially, what are you getting for it? Can you show real return on investment?
But it's not all about the Magnificent Seven as investors step into the busiest week of the quarter.
