E.U. Tariff Deal; Busiest Earnings Week Ahead

PUBLISHED  | 2 min read

U.S. stock futures are slightly higher in the premarket after President Trump announced Sunday that the U.S. has reached an agreement with the European Union to lower tariffs to 15%.

The moves come after the S&P 500 (SPX) and Nasdaq-100 (NDX) settled at another record high close on Friday. Wall Street is also coming off a winning week fueled by strong earnings and recent deals between the U.S. and other trading partners, including Japan and Indonesia.

Investors are gearing up for the busiest week of earnings season. More than 150 companies in the S&P 500 are due to post their quarterly results, including “Magnificent Seven” names Meta Platforms (META) and Microsoft (MSFT) on Wednesday, followed by Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL) on Thursday.

Snapshot (as of 7 AM ET)

  • Oil (/CL) – Oil prices are up over 1% at $66 a barrel after the U.S. reached a trade deal with the European Union and may extend a tariff pause with China, reducing concerns that potentially higher levies would limit economic activity and impact fuel demand.
  • Gold (/GC) – Gold prices are flat near $3335 and near their lowest level in nearly two weeks, as a framework trade agreement between the United States and European Union ahead of the August 1 tariff deadline boosted appetite for risk assets.
  • Bitcoin (/BTC) – The Crypto Future is up 1.3% just below 120K in the premarket.
  • VIX – The CBOE Volatility Index fell 3% on Friday and settled at 14.93 as stocks were higher. It was the lowest closing price for the VIX since Valentine’s Day.
  • U.S. Dollar (/DX) – The dollar is up over 0.5% to 98.
