US: Stocks jump ahead of major earnings, economic data

"Ultimately the stock market is in a mode of blocking out bad news right now and is squeezing the 'worst is behind us' narrative for all it is worth," Briefing.com analyst Patrick O'Hare said, warning that the market had become"divorced from fundamental reality."

Investors will receive plenty of concrete data in the coming days, with fresh consumer confidence and new weekly figures jobless benefits, as well as the report on first-quarter economic growth and a Federal Reserve monetary policy meeting. It is also a busy week for earnings. Among the corporate giants reporting results: Amazon, Boeing, Pfizer, American Airlines and Exxon Mobil.

Companies in the S&P 500 are on track to suffer a 15.8 per cent drop in first-quarter profits, according to Factset, making it the worst year-over-year decline since 2009.
