Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq mixed as Wall Street eyes earnings, trade tensions

US stocks wavered on Tuesday as investors digested the latest wave of corporate earnings and various tariff updates. The benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC) slid 0.2%, while the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose about 0.1%. The Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) was down around 0.3%. Palantir (PLTR) stock jumped about 7% in late morning trading after the company's earnings report beat expectations and revealed its revenue had topped $1 billion in a quarter for the first time. On Monday, stocks sharply rebounded after tanking on Friday in the aftermath of a number of market-shaking events, including a weak jobs report, fresh tariffs, new signs of rising prices, and President Trump's firing of the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Meanwhile, Trump continued to amp up pressure on trade Monday, threatening to hike tariffs on India. Separately, in a Tuesday morning interview with CNBC, Trump said pharmaceutical imports could see tariffs of up to 250%. Trump also ruled out Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as a potential incoming Fed chair, but noted that Jerome Powell's successor could be named "soon." Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs Wall Street is now focused on the continuation of earnings season. On Tuesday, AMD (AMD) and Rivian (RIVN) are set to report their results. McDonald's (MCD) and Disney (DIS) earnings land Wednesday. However, another trade blow looms later in the week, with Trump's latest iteration of global tariffs set to take effect. AI is the clear risk to the upside for the stock market in 2025 Another Wall Street strategist has boosted their year-end S&P 500 target. In a note to clients on Tuesday, HSBC head of equity strategy for the Americas Nicole Inui boosted her year-end S&P 500 target to 6,400 from 5,600. Inui also detailed a bull-case scenario in which an "AI fueled rally" brings the benchmark index to 7,000 by year-end and a bear-case scenario in which tariff impacts drag the S&P 500 down to 5,700. "We have more confidence in the sustainability of the AI trade than further easing on policy uncertainty," Inui wrote. In other words, the risks are more heavily weighted to the bull case outcome. This reveals a key takeaway from how Wall Street is talking about the potential path higher for an S&P 500 that's already near record highs. The bull case for stocks isn't backed by a call for US economic growth to suddenly inflect higher or interest rate cuts from the Federal Reserve to suddenly spark a broad market rally. As we wrote in Tuesday's Yahoo Finance Morning Brief newsletter, the bull case in stocks is still being driven by AI investment and its ability to push corporate profits higher. "For our bull case scenario to play out, tariff costs would shift mostly to the supplier having a negligible impact on US corporate profits," Inui wrote. "At the same time, AI adoption accelerates and starts to have a real impact on profitability through efficiency gains."

PMI data points to 'encouragingly robust' economic activity to start the third quarter Activity in the services continued to expand during the month of July, according to two data releases on Tuesday morning. The Institute for Supply Management's (ISM) services PMI registered a reading of 50.1 in July, down from June's reading of 50.8, and below the 51.5 economists surveyed by Bloomberg had expected. Readings above 50 for this index indicate an expansion in activity, while readings below 50 indicate contraction. The manufacturing sector has been in contraction for most of the past two years. "July's PMI level continues to reflect slow growth, and survey respondents indicated that seasonal and weather factors had negative impacts on business," Steve Miller, the chair of the Institute for Supply Management Services Business Survey committee, said in the release. "The most common topic among survey panelists remained tariff-related impacts, with a noticeable increase in commodities listed as up in price." Elsewhere on Tuesday, S&P Global's composite PMI, which combines both activity in the services and manufacturing sectors, registered a reading of 55.1 in July, up from 52.9 the month prior. S&P Global chief business economist Chris Williamson said the data signals "encouragingly robust economic growth at the start of the third quarter." Williamson added that the July PMI data points to the US economy growing at a 2.5% annualized pace in the third quarter, above the 1.25% pace seen in the first half.
