Watched the market today and it was actually interesting how things turned around. Started with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both hitting 1.5-week lows early on, looked like we were heading south. But then the ADP employment numbers came in stronger than expected - private sector added more jobs than forecasted - and suddenly the whole sentiment shifted. The service sector also showed its best expansion in 8 months, which got people feeling a bit more optimistic about the economy. By close, the stock market rebound was pretty solid, with SPX up 0.42%, DJI up 0.12%, and NDX up 0.41%.
Chip stocks led the charge today, which makes sense given all the AI infrastructure chatter. Seagate was up over 11%, Micron jumped 8%, and most of the semiconductor names rallied. Though Super Micro Computer got hit hard, down 8% after missing on Q1 sales - that's the kind of correction you see in hot sectors. Some other earnings beats helped too: Lumentum popped 24% on solid guidance, Toast and Unity both crushed expectations. But yeah, Zimmer Biomet and Axon Enterprise got destroyed on disappointing numbers.
Thing is, there's still this uncertainty hanging over everything. The government shutdown is now the longest on record, which is definitely weighing on sentiment. Plus the Supreme Court is hearing arguments about Trump's tariffs today - could be a big deal if they rule against them. Treasury yields climbed as inflation expectations ticked up, and the market's only pricing in about a 62% chance of another rate cut from the Fed in December. So while today's stock market rebound felt good, there's plenty of moving parts to watch.
