WALL STREET STARTS MIXED AS S&P 500 FLIRTS WITH RECORD CLOSING HIGH
The S&P 500 and the Dow edged higher on Monday as new orders for core capital goods came in weaker than expected and investors girded themselves for what promises to be an eventful week.
Weakness in tech shares .SPLRCT dragged the Nasdaq into he red.
This week, the magic number is 5667.20.
That's the S&P 500's record closing high reached on July 16, just 0.6% to the north of the benchmark index's closing level on Friday.
Another closely watched event on this week's docket will be AI darling Nvidia's NVDA.O, quarterly results, expected on Wednesday.
A solid beat/miss, or an upbeat/downbeat outlook is bound to be contagious.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, in his Jackson Hole address on Friday indicated that the time has come for the central bank to embark on their rate cutting phase.
But the size of its initial cut, now expected at the conclusion of the Fed's September policy meeting, remains up in the air.
The Commerce Department's second take on second-quarter GDP, and its comprehensive Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report - which includes Powell & Co's preferred inflation yardstick - could help make the case for a 25- or 50-basis-point reduction in the key Fed funds target rate.
GDP and PCE are due to be released on Thursday and Friday, respectively.
Here's where things stood as of 09:52 EDT:
