Second-quarter earnings season continues with Google-parent Alphabet, Microsoft and Apple are set to report after the bell Tuesday.
“It appears that we’re going to get really solid earnings from these companies and that should give a little bit of a boost to the market. Some of these names have already run so much this year that perhaps we don’t get a large bounce,” said Victoria Fernandez, Crossmark Global Investments chief market strategist.
“Apple may be your best opportunity to see some movement because they’ve been in more of a consolidation phase over the last few months,” Fernandez added.
JetBlue, UPS, General Electric and Starbucks are also scheduled to post earnings Tuesday.
The Federal Reserve’s two-day policy meeting is also set to begin Tuesday. Investors are awaiting insights into the central bank’s monetary policy.
