US stocks are seen trading slightly lower Tuesday, consolidating from record levels, with investors keeping a wary eye on the ongoing earnings season and ahead of Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial. All three major indices on Wall Street closed at all-time highs on Monday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 have now advanced for six straight sessions, their longest win streaks since August, while the Nasdaq Composite has finished higher on five of those six days. Also helping the tone has been a largely positive earnings season so far, coupled with improving numbers on the pandemic. The United States reported a 25% drop in new cases of Covid-19 to about 825,000 last week, the biggest fall since the pandemic started, while deaths fell 2.5%.

Surprisingly, many companies beat these low expectations, with 75% of S&P 500 companies surpassing forecasts.

The S&P 500 had a good week due to the impressive start of Q1 earnings and favorable inflation data. In March, the consumer price index rose 5%, lower than the previous month's 6%, and met economists' expectations.
Welcome to October, the tenth month of 2023. For this installment of What to Trade, I have handpicked a few of my favorite trade ideas for the month. Let’s go over a few of them.
The past several weeks have been a real triumph for the bulls in the oil market. The Brent spot price grew by 8.5% during the last month.
Gold prices are rising for three consecutive days ahead of the Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate decision, which is expected to remain unchanged due to declining inflation and a positive economic outlook. Investors are keen on the Fed's interest rate guidance, fearing a hawkish stance that could trigger market risk aversion.
