Worries over the fallout from Iran's attack on Israel eased, allowing focus to return to earnings season and inflation risks to rate-cut hopes.

US stocks rose Monday as worries over the fallout from Iran's attack on Israel eased, allowing focus to return to earnings season and inflation risks to rate-cut hopes. The S&P 500 added roughly 0.9%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average moved up nearly 1%, or over 360 points, after ending the week with sharp losses. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite was up 0.6%.

Stocks have come under pressure in recent days as earnings season got off to a lackluster start and concerns persisted that inflation has stalled in cooling to the Federal Reserve's 2% target. Traders have scaled back bets on the depth of Fed interest-rate cuts this year in the face of disappointing economic data. Goldman Sachs on Monday got this week's earnings off to an upbeat start, as investors look to corporate results to revive the early 2024 equity rally.
