Earnings This Week,Nasdaq Composite,Dow

Investors are bracing for a big week filled with a Fed rate decision, the jobs report and Big Tech earnings.

The Dow added to its recent rally on Monday, as US stocks rose ahead of a big week filled with a Federal Reserve rate decision, the jobs report, and Big Tech earnings. The Dow Jones Industrial Average moved up roughly 0.2%, coming off a surge of over 650 points for the blue-chip index. The S&P 500 also added about 0.3%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite rose roughly 0.5%.

No move is expected from the Federal Reserve at the end of its meeting on Wednesday, despite signs the US economy and inflation have hit a sweet spot. Many on Wall Street see other reasons for the central bank to wait until September to act.
