What to expect in the week ahead (MSFT, AAPL, TSLA, BA)
Weekly market recap
The overnight action followed a brutal week on Wall Street in the face of mixed company earnings and worries about rising interest rates. The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ lost 5.7% last week and closed below its 200-day moving average, a key technical level, for the first time since June 2020. The blue-chip $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ fell 4.6% for its worst week since October 2020.

The sell-off in the tech-heavy $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ was even more severe with the benchmark dropping 7.6% last week, notching its fourth straight weekly loss. The index now sits more than 14% below its November record close, falling deeper into correction territory.

The fourth-quarter earnings season has been a mixed bag. While more than 70% of S&P 500 companies that have reported results have topped Wall Street estimates, a couple of key firms let down investors last week, including $Goldman Sachs (GS.US)$ and $Netflix (NFLX.US)$ .

The highlight on the economic calendar will be Wednesday's conclusion of the Federal Open Market Committee's January meeting. The Federal Reserve's monetary-policy making body publishes a decision that afternoon, followed by a press conference with chairman Jerome Powell. Both will be closely parsed for clues to the central bank's next moves.

IHS Markit reports its Manufacturing and Services Purchasing Managers' indexes for January. Consensus estimate is for a 56 reading for the manufacturing PMI and a 54 for the Services PMI. Both figures are less than the December data. The PMIs are off their record peaks from the middle of last year but remain well above the expansionary level of 50.

S&P CoreLogic releases its Case-Shiller National Home Price Index for November. Economists forecast a 18% year-over-year rise, marginally less than in October. If estimates prove correct, it would be the 12th consecutive month with double-digit gains for home prices.
Wednesday 1/26
