Wednesday morning, markets were somewhat mixed, with the Nasdaq taking a dive, down over 0.6%. The Dow Jones industrials saw a slight gain while the S&P 500 had a slight loss. Despite the broad markets moving in different directions, there was even more action in other areas. West Texas Intermediate crude bounced back from Tuesday by more than 1%, and Bitcoin recovered almost 2% as well.
While in a broad sense, investors and brokers alike may be abiding by the old market adage of “sell in May and go away,” there is still action happening around the market in the coming days and weeks. The Federal Reserve has a policy meeting next week in which interest rates are expected to remain flat.
Withstanding moves like we may be seeing at the Fed, on the micro level, companies are reporting quarterly results this week, and these could have sizable ramifications for each individual stock.
