[Upgrade Now!]( Premarket Highlights 🔎 📈 Tech Stocks Lead Market Surge with Earnings on Deck Tech stocks spearheaded a robust rally in the stock market on Tuesday, with the Nasdaq Composite leading the charge by jumping 1.6%. This marks a continuation of its recovery from a recent downturn, energizing markets for the second day in a row. The S&P 500 also saw a healthy increase of 1.2%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 0.7%, adding approximately 264 points. Earnings Boost 🚀 The upbeat mood among investors was fueled by strong earnings reports released before the market opened from major players such as General Motors, United Parcel Service, and GE Aerospace. Notably, GE Aerospace reported as an independent entity for the first time since its split from General Electric’s power division, catching investor attention with its performance. Global Tensions 🌍 The recent rally comes as a relief following a tumultuous period driven by geopolitical fears, notably concerns over potential escalations between Iran and Israel, rising oil prices, and increasing bond yields. These factors had contributed to a sharp 5% fall in the S&P 500 in less than a month. However, with oil prices retreating from their peaks and Treasury yields finding some stability, investor sentiment has improved, reflecting a renewed optimism in the financial markets. Looking Ahead 🧐 As investors gear up for a series of critical earnings reports from leading tech companies, the current rally reflects broader market confidence in the tech sector's resilience and growth prospects. The positive response to early earnings announcements and strategic moves by the tech sector suggests that the market may be on a path to sustained recovery, assuming global tensions do not escalate further and economic indicators remain stable.

The company also said its recently announced layoffs will cut its costs by $350 million, freeing up more resources to work on new models. TSLA is leading the S&P 500 with a 12.0% gain on 4.5 million shares traded. My Take: TSLA chart is beginning to look attractive. Today’s sudden rally combined a recent spike in volume could indicate we’ve reached a bottom. I might snatch up some shares in the coming weeks. B Riley Financial [RILY] - Last Close: $21.72 B Riley is getting a boost after filing its 2023 annual report via a Form-10K disclosure early this morning. Chairman and co-CEO Bryant Riley said the business has performed well in 2024 and slashed its overall debts by $55 million. Despite reporting a net loss on the year, RILY is up 36.5% on over half-a-million shares traded this morning. My Take: RILY’s report wasn’t all that impressive, but the market saw something it liked. The stock appears to be riding an up-trend, so this rally could bode well for its near-term performance. Amesite [AMST] - Last Close: $2.00 This tiny AI company just launched a beta release of its NurseMagic proprietary app designed specifically for nurses. The new web app uses AI to provide tools & resources for over 5.2 million, plus accredited continuing education programs for license requirements. AMST is up 68.3% on over 7 million shares traded. My Take: AMST is gettin a big boost from this news, but I am wondering if the move is a bit overdone. Watch out for a pullback. . BranchOut Food [BOF] - Last Close: $1.17 This morning, BranchOut Foods said it landed a third contract with the “nation’s largest retailer” for its dehydrated fruit and vegetable products. The agreement brings the total annualized value of commitments from the unnamed retailer to $8 million annually. BOF is up 62.2% on over 2 million shares traded in response to the news. My Take: Good deal for BOF, but I would be interested to know the idenitity of the retailer. Either way, these deals could help BOF land more deals with big retailers in the future. That's it for today! Thanks for reading, and good luck out there! Best Regards, — Chris D.
