(Aug 14): US equities are holding on to gains that propelled them to all-time highs this week, after a set of data eased rate-hike expectations and robust earnings renewed faith in the artificial intelligence trade. \nS&P 500 gains 0.1% as of 10am in New York after closing at a record high Thursday. The technology-heavy Nasdaq 100 climbs 0.2%. Both gauges are heading for a third week of gains, the longest winning streak since May. \nBrent crude is around US$87 per barrel after briefly jumping 2% overnight as the US announced plans to levy harsh economic measures against Iran. Negotiations between the two countries have remained at a standstill over the past week, with oil prices stubbornly high. \nUS retail sales fell by the most in more than a year, suggesting spending lost some momentum after a strong performance in the first half of the year. Muted consumer and producer price readings drove market gains earlier this week. Economic data on business inventories and the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index are scheduled to be released later this morning. \nRetail sales weakness \"may be overstated\", according to Jennifer Timmerman, Wells Fargo senior investment strategy analyst. \"The decline in underlying sales was partly tied to this year's early Amazon Prime Day event (pulled forward to June), evident from a pullback in outlays at non-store retailers.\" \nWhile Timmerman expects consumer spending to moderate in the coming months from pressures on lower-income households, \"the AI investment boom will continue to support economic growth and drive corporate earnings, while gains in the stock market should underpin spending among higher-income consumers\", she said.\nAbout 85% of the S&P 500's market capitalisation of companies that have reported second quarter earnings have beaten profit expectations, one of the highest shares in recent years. \nWhile major indices trailed their 50-day moving averages and were \"teetering on full breakdowns\" as of late July, several weeks later, small-caps, mid-caps and large-caps have all broken out to record highs, \"confirming the bull market that's been in place since late 2022\", Bespoke Investment Group wrote in a note.\nEarnings per share is expected to have grown roughly 53% in the second quarter, which would mark \"the strongest season on record, save post-recessionary rebounds\", Seaport Global Holdings chief equity strategist Jonathan Golub wrote in a note. \n\"Investors are significantly underestimating growth. Analyst forecasts for 3Q and 2027 continue to rise, an indication that recent earnings upside is likely to persist,\" he said.\nAn extended rebound in technology stocks this week is renewing some market bubble concerns. At the same time, a surging stock market has investors buying less downside protection as upside call demand grows on fears of missing out. That market rally would be buoyed by a Republican win in the midterm elections and the Texas gubernatorial contest, according to $Bank of America Corp(BAC-N)$ strategists.\nIn single stocks, Reddit Inc shares rally as the social media company is set to join the S&P 500 in late August, a membership that has grown evermore important as passive investment funds increasingly dominate the market.\nSectors to watch\n\nAnalysts are anticipating software stocks are on the verge of a turnaround after Reuters reported that the software provider Workday was in talks to be acquired by SilverLake.\nShares of dronemakers AeroVironment Inc and Aevex Corp, and drone-parts company Unusual Machines Inc rose Friday after the Trump administration announced a 100% tariff on imports of unmanned aircraft systems and components.\nApparel stocks may be in focus after the government's July retail sales report showed clothing sales rose 1.9% m/m. Clothing was the best performing group last month.\n\nUploaded by Chng Shear Lane","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
