Earnings are in Full Swing, and the Market is Swinging too | Wall Street Today
The market fell Tuesday, and indexes pulled back after bank earnings came in hot, while healthcare and semiconductor company reports were more of a mixed bag. ASML earnings semiconductors back hard, and UNH results pulled back the Dow.
Just past 4 pm ET the $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ fell 0.76%, the $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$ fell 0.75%, and the $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ fell 1.01%.

A recent run of strong economic data doesn't mean that more big price increases are around the corner, Mary Daly, president of the SF Fed, told reporters Tuesday. Speaking to a New York University crowd, Daly said he would support taking a break from cuts for a meeting or two.
"You can't, in my judgment, reflexively say, 'I have stronger-than-expected growth, I have stronger-than-expected employment, inflation must be around the corner,' " Daly says.
Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said at a Tuesday bank conference that the neutral rate must be higher after aggressive rate cuts failed to cause a recession in 2022 and 2023. Seeking Alpha reported he was unsure of the way forward besides gradually lowering rates over the next few quarters.
Monday, Fed Gov. Chris Waller said the economy is much stronger than previously thought, and the labor market remains quite healthy, speaking at Stanford University in California. According to MarketWatch, Waller noted that the Fed and Wall Street had been fooled by reports over the summer that indicated the economy was slowing.
"To remind you of how bad the markets viewed the July data, some Fed watchers were calling for an emergency [Fed] meeting to discuss a rate cut," Waller said.

Dan’l : It seems no quarterly can satisfy folks these days… if $United Airlines (UAL.US)$ could make their jets sprinkle gold coins when somebody flushed? There’d still be turbulence.
They’re overweight. They’re buying back shares. They’re outperforming. They’re strategically expanding routes.
They’re a good value, at a bargain price.
