The Most Important ETF in the Market Right Now

What’s in Today’s Report:

  • The Most Important ETF in the Market Right Now
  • Is Tech Flashing a Warning Sign for the Broader Markets?
  • What to Do, Specifically, to Diversify Away from Tech

Futures are higher following a quiet night of news thanks to better than expected software earnings.

Tech earnings were mixed as CSCO (down –7%) fell on soft margins while software company Hubspot (HUBS up 7%) rallied on a solid print, bolstering software names.

Economically, UK Monthly GDP slightly missed estimates, rising 0.1% m/m vs. (E) 0.2% m/m.

Today focus will be on economic data and specifically Jobless Claims (E: 222K).  The monthly jobs report relaxed labor market anxiety and a drop in claims will further reinforce that we’re in a Goldilocks economy.  We also get Existing Home Sales (E: 4.20 million), although that shouldn’t move markets.

Earnings continue, meanwhile, with COIN ($0.99) and AMAT ($2.19) posting results today.
