    Fed Holds Rates as Stocks Whipsaw Through a Wild Final Two Hours | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. It was Fed Day, and the Federal Reserve (Fed) held interest rates steady in a 10 to 2 vote, an outcome the market had priced at a 92% probability. The real action came from the Fed Chair’s commentary. Between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m., the S&P 500 reversed direction 37 times, swinging through double tops and a double bottom and briefly dipping into negative territory before rallying into the close to finish up roughly 45 points. Volume came in at 1.3 billion shares, with advances versus declines split 50-50 for another session. Transports fell sharply as oil jumped as much as $3.50 intraday, while the Volatility Index (VIX) dropped a dollar, a sign of little real fear beneath the chaos. Peter describes the last two hours as pure emotional whiplash and says tomorrow’s session will show how the investment community truly reads the Fed decision.

    Oil Pulls Back as Traders Shop Ahead of Fed Day | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) finished essentially flat at 52,380 on 1.2 billion shares, while advances versus declines split 50-50, a pattern Peter reads as straight rotation, with investors selling one position to fund another. Crude oil pulled back $1.40 and the Dow Jones Transportation Average jumped 350 points after oil spent a long stretch at elevated levels tied to the conflict in the Middle East. Peter explains why the Federal Reserve (Fed) weighs many data points instead of reacting to oil alone, and why the old inverse link between oil and stocks has broken down. A Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decision is due tomorrow with no rate change expected. Fund families are squaring positions at the end of October, and the busiest stretch of earnings season is arriving. Peter sees traders working from a shopping list and buying with determination. Today’s Topics Dow Jones finishes flat at 52,380 as advances and declines split 50-50 on 1.2 billion sharesCrude oil drops $1.40 while the Dow Jones Transportation Average rallies 350 pointsWhy the Federal Reserve (Fed) looks past a single data point like oil when setting policyFederal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decision ahead with virtually no expected change in interest ratesEarnings as the lifeblood of the market, with Peter noting roughly 85% of S&P 500 companies beat last quarterWhat Peter is watching: Fed Day, the heart of earnings season, and Big Tech reports later this weekTopics Covered Wall Street, Stock Market, Stock Market News, Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, NYSE, New York Stock Exchange, Investing, Trading, Finance, Market Recap, Market News, Stocks, Federal Reserve, Interest Rates, Inflation, Earnings, S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Investor Sentiment, Dow Jones Industrial Average, DJIA, Dow Transports, Dow Jones Transportation Average, Oil, Crude Oil, Oil Prices, FOMC, Fed Meeting, Fed Day, Interest Rate Decision, Earnings Season, Big Tech Earnings, Sector Rotation, Market Breadth, Advance Decline, Middle East, Trading Volume, Wall Street Today.

    Traders Brace for the Fed and a Heavy Earnings Week as Oil Keeps Inflation in Focus | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. The last week of October opened with a solid session, with the Dow Jones up 150 points and the S&P 500 (SPY) up 55 points on 1.35 billion shares. Advances versus declines finished close to 50-50, while the Dow Jones Transportation Average rallied 170 points and the Volatility Index (VIX) slipped about a point. Roughly 35% of S&P 500 companies report earnings this week, and the Federal Reserve (Fed) meets with markets pricing almost no chance of a rate move. Peter questions that calm, since oil is trading around 110 to 115 and its inflationary implications remain unaddressed. He also weighs hedge funds protecting gains into year-end, more than 65 record closes, two wars, tariffs and a new Fed chair. His advice is to keep your powder dry for the rest of the week. Today’s Topics Dow Jones up 150 and S&P 500 (SPY) up 55 on 1.35 billion shares, with advances versus declines near 50-50Dow Jones Transportation Average jumps 170 points while the Volatility Index (VIX) easesRoughly 35% of S&P 500 companies report earnings this weekFederal Reserve (Fed) meeting with only about a 2% probability of a rate move priced inOil around 110 to 115 and its inflationary implications for the new Fed chairWhat Peter is watching as hedge funds look to protect year-end gainsTopics Covered Wall Street, Stock Market, Stock Market News, Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, NYSE, New York Stock Exchange, Investing, Trading, Finance, Market Recap, Market News, Stocks, Federal Reserve, Interest Rates, Inflation, Earnings, S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Investor Sentiment, Earnings Season, Fed Meeting, FOMC, Rate Decision, Fed Chair, Oil Prices, Crude Oil, VIX, Volatility Index, Dow Jones Transportation Average, Transports, Hedge Funds, Tariffs, Record Highs, Market Breadth, Year-End Trading, Wall Street Today.

    Oil Surge Sends the Dow Sharply Lower as Inflation Fears Build Ahead of the Fed | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. A roller coaster week ended with a roller coaster session in the red, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) sold off aggressively and closed down 652 points on Friday, October 23. Declines outpaced advances roughly one and a half to one on 1.1 billion shares, with transports lower and Brent crude higher. The reversal stands out after Thursday, when the Dow held flat even as the S&P 500 (SPY) dropped 30 to 40 points, a sign that buyers were working through a shopping list of industrials they liked, and today that support gave way. Oil climbed to $116.82, up $3.65, as Middle East headlines pushed markets deeper into inflation mode. Peter walks through the classic trade of rising oil, falling transports and weaker stocks. With the Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting on October 28, Peter weighs whether prolonged triple-digit oil could push the Fed toward an interest rate hike, while noting the market remains about 2% from its highs. Today’s Topics Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) drops 652 points as a roller coaster week closes in the redDeclines beat advances about one and a half to one on 1.1 billion shares, with transports downThursday’s divergence explained: the Dow held flat while the S&P 500 (SPY) fell as buyers shopped for industrialsOil climbs to $116.82 on Middle East tensions, with Brent crude higher and inflation fears buildingWhy rising oil, falling transports and falling stocks remain the basic trade when there are no earnings to drive the marketWhat Peter is watching: the Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting on October 28 and the chance of an interest rate hikeTopics Covered Wall Street, Stock Market, Stock Market News, Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, NYSE, New York Stock Exchange, Investing, Trading, Finance, Market Recap, Market News, Stocks, Federal Reserve, Interest Rates, Inflation, Earnings, S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Investor Sentiment, Dow Jones Industrial Average, DJIA, SPY, Crude Oil, Oil Prices, Brent Crude, Transports, Industrials, Middle East, Geopolitical Risk, Rate Hike, FOMC, Fed Meeting, Market Selloff, Market Breadth, Advances and Declines, Stock Market Today, Wall Street Today.

    Oil Spike and Middle East Tensions Hit Tech as Investors Buy Dow Industrials | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. Thursday’s session delivered a truly mixed tape. The S&P 500 (SPY) gave back roughly 100 points after two straight days of 50-point gains, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed slightly positive. Advances still beat declines by about one and a half to one on 1.35 billion shares. That shows investors working from a shopping list, buying industrials and other Dow components even as tech sold off. Brent crude oil jumped more than $4, yet transports finished higher, a divergence Peter says makes no sense. The Volatility Index (VIX) rose about two and a quarter points as fear returned to the market. The trigger was a mid-afternoon sell-off after the administration urged Americans in the Middle East to come home. Selling in tech centered on semiconductor, memory and compute names. After speaking with Dan Ives, Peter still sees the artificial intelligence (AI) driven fourth industrial revolution in its early innings, even if the data center build-out timeline hits some bumps. Today’s Topics S&P 500 (SPY) down about 100 points while the Dow Jones (DJIA) closes slightly positiveAdvances beat declines 1.5 to 1 on 1.35 billion shares as buyers target Dow industrialsBrent crude oil up more than $4, yet transports rise in an unusual divergenceVolatility Index (VIX) jumps as Middle East warnings spark a mid-afternoon sell-offTech weakness concentrated in chips, memory and compute, with Dan Ives’ view on the AI build-outWhat Peter is watching heading into Friday’s sessionTopics Covered Wall Street, Stock Market, Stock Market News, Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, NYSE, New York Stock Exchange, Investing, Trading, Finance, Market Recap, Market News, Stocks, Federal Reserve, Interest Rates, Inflation, Earnings, S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Investor Sentiment, Brent Crude, Oil Prices, VIX, Volatility Index, Market Volatility, Middle East, Geopolitical Risk, Tech Stocks, Semiconductors, Chip Stocks, Memory Stocks, Data Centers, Artificial Intelligence, AI Stocks, Dan Ives, Industrials, Transports, Market Breadth, Stock Market Sell-Off.

    Roller Coaster Session Ends Higher as Solid Earnings Put Tech Back in Favor | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. Wednesday, October 21st was a roller coaster session that still finished higher. The Dow Jones closed up 360 points and the S&P 500 (SPY) gained roughly 50 points on 1.1 billion shares. Stocks opened higher, dipped, then rallied strongly. A sharp late-afternoon dive of about 55 points followed before the selloff evaporated. Peter links the drop to headlines that U.S. diplomatic staff in the Middle East were being advised to come home, though the details remained unclear. Advances versus declines finished an even 50-50, transports edged up, the Volatility Index (VIX) slipped, and Brent crude ticked higher. The October 19th 1987 crash anniversary passed without the doomsday repeat some predicted. Earnings remain the lifeblood of this market. Meta Platforms (META) posted solid results after the bell and traded up about $31, as tech, compute, memory, and hyperscaler names come back into favor.

    Tech Leads the Market on the Black Monday Anniversary as Fear Quietly Builds | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. Monday, October 19 marked the anniversary of Black Monday, the 1987 stock market crash that Peter traded through as a young clerk on the NYSE floor. Today’s session was far calmer, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closing down 40 points while the S&P 500 (SPY) finished up 30 points on 1.1 billion shares. Down volume still outpaced up volume two to one, transports fell 200 points, and oil eased slightly. The Volatility Index (VIX) came off after climbing to the 20 level, reflecting fear that has been quietly building over recent weeks as tech, the Magnificent Seven, compute, memory and software stocks took a beating. Today the Nasdaq and tech led the market, a welcome turn for the sectors hit hardest. The S&P 500 holds near 7,800, just off its record high, while the Dow sits around 52,000, below its 55,000 peak. With oil prices elevated and a Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting ahead, Peter looks back at the crash of 1987 and keeps his focus on the road forward. Today’s Topics Dow Jones closes down 40 points while the S&P 500 (SPY) gains 30 on 1.1 billion sharesDown volume beats up volume two to one as transports drop 200 pointsVolatility Index (VIX) eases after rising to the 20 level amid weeks of quiet fearTech and the Nasdaq lead after a rough stretch for the Magnificent Seven, memory and software stocksPeter’s firsthand memories of Black Monday 1987 and trading Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) on the NYSE floorWhat Peter is watching: elevated oil prices, inflation pressure and the upcoming Federal Reserve (Fed) meetingTopics Covered Wall Street, Stock Market, Stock Market News, Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, NYSE, New York Stock Exchange, Investing, Trading, Finance, Market Recap, Market News, Stocks, Federal Reserve, Interest Rates, Inflation, Earnings, S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones, Investor Sentiment, Black Monday, Black Monday 1987, Stock Market Crash, 1987 Crash, Market History, VIX, Volatility, Tech Stocks, Magnificent Seven, Memory Stocks, Software Stocks, Transports, Oil, Crude Oil, Fed Meeting, Market Sell-Off, Wall Street Today.

    Oil Surge Revives Fed Rate Hike Fears as Tech Slides and Volatility Spikes | Wall Street Closing Bell with Peter Tuchman

    Today’s Wall Street Closing Bell recap with Peter Tuchman. In today’s episode of Wall Street Closing Bell, Peter Tuchman, the legendary New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) trader known as the “Einstein of Wall Street,” breaks down everything that moved the stock market today. Closing out the week on Friday, October 16, with options expiration putting 1.4 billion shares on the tape, the Dow Jones fell 175 points and the S&P 500 (SPY) dropped roughly 100 points. The Volatility Index (VIX) jumped 15% in what Peter called its best day, a clear signal of fear and downside risk. Tech, chips, software, and the Russell 2000 took the brunt of the selling as Brent crude oil climbed $4 to $109. Peter explains why oil holding above $100 for six months is so inflationary and why it puts a Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate hike back on the table. He walks through a volatile week: a sideways Monday and Tuesday, a 3-to-1 selloff on Wednesday driven by midterm election jitters and a 3.7% Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading, and a 3-to-1 rebound Thursday before Friday’s fear-driven selling. Looking ahead, he expects tax-loss harvesting and book closing from institutions into the end of October and November.
