The Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied 200 points Monday, as Apple stock jumped ahead of the company's WWDC 2022 developers event. A key test for the stock market this week is Friday's consumer-price index, as investors look for signs that inflation has peaked.
XTwitter (TWTR) dived 5% Monday morning after Elon Musk accused Twitter of "resisting and thwarting" his right to learn more about fake accounts on the social media platform, saying it was a "clear material breach" of the terms of their merger agreement in a letter to the company on Monday.
Shares of Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP), VICI Properties (VICI) and ON Semiconductor (ON) advanced after S&P Dow Jones Indices said the three companies will join the benchmark S&P 500 index this month.
China-based stocks and stocks with China exposure rallied as Beijing eased some Covid restrictions. Solar issues jumped after Reuters reported the Biden administration planned a 24-month waiver on any new tariffs for components imported from Southeast Asian nations.
Electric-vehicle giant Tesla (TSLA) traded up more than 1%. Elsewhere, Dow Jones tech leaders Microsoft (MSFT) chased Apple's (AAPL) early gains in today's stock market. American Express (AXP) led the Dow in early trade, following an upgrade to buy from brokerage Edward Jones.
Amid the ongoing stock market rally, Dow Jones leaders Chevron (CVX) and Merck (MRK) — along with Albemarle (ALB), Eli Lilly (LLY), Enphase (ENPH), Northrop Grumman (NOC) and ZIM Integrated Shipping (ZIM) — are among IBD's top stocks to watch for Monday.
Albemarle is an IBD Leaderboard stock. Enphase is on IBD SwingTrader. And Albemarle was featured in last week's Stocks Near A Buy Zone column. ZIM was a featured IPO Leader.
Dow Jones Today: Treasury Yields, Oil Prices
After Monday's open, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rallied 0.6%, while the S&P 500 moved up 0.9%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite advanced 1.1% in morning trade.
Among exchange-traded funds, the Nasdaq 100 tracker Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) rose 1.1%, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) gained 0.9%.
The 10-year Treasury yield looked to add to last week's gains, rising to 2.97% Monday morning. Meanwhile, U.S. oil prices held effectively flat, with West Texas Intermediate crude traded just below $120 a barrel.
Stock Market Rally
On Friday, the major stock indexes sold off sharply. The Nasdaq was the index that suffered the most, dropping 2.5%. The S&P 500 also had a tough time, falling 1.6%.
Friday's The Big Picture column commented, "While job growth slowed compared to April, it may not be sufficient to prevent the Fed from continuing to hike interest rates beyond the summer. The job data poured cold water on enthusiasm that rose Thursday after private payroll data from ADP showed an estimated gain of 128,000 jobs in May, well shy of estimates."
