Analyst View
The U.S. stock indexes responded to earning reports which were not as impressive as the earlier reports that came to the market. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 265 points, or 0.74%, while the S&P 500 index lost 0.51% and the Nasdaq Composite index finished unchanged. The weakness in the Dow and the S&P 500 pushed both indexes off their record highs. 

However, the earning's report of Microsoft and Boeing Co. which earned a profit for the second straight quarter as the planemaker ramped up deliveries of its 737 Max jet were soft landing spots on the DOW. Coca-Cola Co. hiked its full-year profit outlook as the reopening of theaters, restaurants, and other venues boosted demand for soda.  

In technology, Alphabet Inc. beat on both the top and bottom lines as advertising revenue surged 43% year over year. Revenue from the company’s YouTube unit saw a modest impact due to Apple’s privacy changes.

Tesla Inc. stocked sustained its upward trend following Uber Technologies Inc. announcement to team up with Hertz Global Holdings Inc. to offer electric vehicles. Hertz will make up to 50,000 fully electric Teslas available for Uber drivers to rent by 2023. 

Commodities, West Texas Intermediate crude slid $1.99 to $82.66 a barrel and gold edged up to $5.40 to $1,798.10 an ounce. 

 

European indexes were bearish across the board with France’s CAC 40 losing 0.19% and Britain’s FTSE 100 and Germany’s DAX 30 both falling 0.33%. 

In Asia, Japan’s Nikkei 225 slipped 0.03%, China’s Shanghai Composite declined 0.98% and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index tumbled 1.57%.
