Today’s Stock Market
Eric Criscuolo - Market Strategist
May 1, 2026 at 9:15 a.m. EST
Good morning. US equities closed out April almost as strongly as the Knicks did. The S&P gained 1% yesterday, closing at a new record high. Breadth was solid with the equal-weight and Russell 2000 outperforming. Mega-cap tech earnings were the main story, along with news that yen intervention went from verbal to active. Dollar weakness lined up with a sharp reversal in Brent, which saw the front-month contract roll. The tech earnings were very strong as expected though stock reactions were mixed, PCE was inline and the initial read at Q1 GDP rose from Q1 but was a bit lower than estimates but still showed a resilient economy.
With most of Europe and Asia closed, S&P futures were trading around unchanged before news of a new proposal from Iran sent them higher, though they’ve come off their best levels. Apple is up 3% in the pre-market after reporting last night while becoming the latest to warn on memory/input prices. TWLO, FIVN, TEAM, RDDT, ROKU are all up ~10% or more before the open on earnings. SNDK and WDC are lower despite very strong earnings and memory market commentary (see AAPL).
After a very busy calendar yesterday, today’s economic data slows considerably with ISM manufacturing after the Open the headliner. Treasury yields are about flat after falling 5-10bp across the curve yesterday. The US Dollar Index is modestly lower, with follow through from yesterday’s sharp drop on the yen-intervention.
Brent Crude, now with July the front-month, is slightly higher after volatile trading yesterday as futures rolled. It didn’t move much on the latest Iran proposal news. Gold is down after gaining yesterday while other metals see modest gains. Bitcoin is higher, breaking above its 100d moving average and Ether is up as well.
