The market stumbled Thursday morning as investors kept watch on the debt ceiling discussion and the Federal Reserve’s next move.
Despite hopes that interest rate hikes will soon pause, Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan said recent economic data doesn’t support a pause just yet. The Fed’s next meeting is scheduled for June 14.
Investors are also digesting the latest earnings reports and other company news.
Cisco Systems Inc. (Nasdaq: CSCO) reported a decline in orders, causing shares to fall 4% during premarket trading. Walmart Inc. (NYSE: WMT) beat earnings and revenue estimates, and raised its full-year guidance. Shares rose 1.8% during early morning trading.
In this morning’s stock market recap video, I’ll discuss what’s going on with the Nasdaq… if bonds are set to rise or fall flat… if I’m still defensive on stocks or becoming bullish… what regional banks are up to and why they rallied… which two Fed reports we need to pay attention to right now… plus which ETF I’m targeting and why!

And trading veteran Celeste Lindman just revealed exactly what it is!
P.P.S. When it comes to trading, every second counts. And in choppy markets like these, often driven by headlines, stocks can make big moves in a flash.
