The risk-on mood was evident across the global markets as China&#8217;s commitment to stimulate the domestic economy encouraged traders. The markets also have several Main Street catalysts to consider, including weekly jobless claims data and inflation measures from the second-quarter GDP report. A slew of Federal Reserve officials are due to make speeches, which could potentially offer clues toward the interest-rate trajectory.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks ended Tuesday&#8217;s session on a mixed note, as wary traders either stepped to the sidelines or took some profits off the table ahead of the flurry of data due over the next two days and Micron&#8217;s earnings that came out after the market closed. IT and utility stocks rose, while the remaining 11 sector classes pulled back. Energy and healthcare stocks were among the worst performers of the session.
The Nasdaq Composite ended marginally higher, advancing for a third straight session, while the S&amp;P 500 Index and the Dow Industrials retreated from their record highs.

Insights From Analysts:
The market could remain lackadaisical until the election, according to Fund Strat&#8217;s Tom Lee. The Fed rate cut is historically positive three to six months out but what stocks do in the next month is a bit of a coin flip, the strategist <a href="https://x.com/CNBCClosingBell/status/1839029917742219408">said</a> in an interview with CNBC. 
Some repositioning took place and the market is now looking ahead to the election, which is just 40 days away, he said. 
Lee noted that most wealth managers and family offices he spoke to hinted at unwillingness to commit capital until after election day. &#8220;I don't think it matters who wins; It&#8217;s just they want to get that event behind,&#8221; he added.
The strategist said in election years, the November and December rallies are pretty tremendous, and when the gains are over 10% in the first half of the year, the November-December rallies get bigger, he said. &#8220;I am bullish into year-end but I'm a little less confident about how markets behave into election day and not that I think we're going to have a huge drawdown,&#8221; he added. 
&#8220;I also don't think we can make new highs and then see the market blast off after election day. So I'd rather sort of say things look a lot better after election day,&#8221; Lee said.
A Morgan Stanley strategist looked ahead to what&#8217;s in store after the first rate cut in the current monetary policy cycle. Chief Investment Officer, Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, Lisa Shalett said corporate fundamentals will now need to come into sharper focus, though expectations are already ambitious.
Given this backdrop, she advised investors to consider reducing ultra-short and money market positions in favor of locking in longer-dated rates. The equal-weighted S&amp;P 500 Index may provide better risk-adjusted exposure than its market-cap-weighted counterpart, she said. The strategist also flagged financial services, industrials, energy, healthcare and materials, as well as parts of technology such as software as compelling opportunities. Defensive ideas in residential REITs and utilities, and non-U.S. assets also could work in the current environment, she said.

US Stocks Set For Strong Start, Micron Jumps, China Commits More Stimulus: Strategist Flags 'Tremendous' Gains Near Term

Worthington Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WOR#NYSE">WOR</a>) shares are trading lower at a premarket on Wednesday after the company reported worse-than-<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/g41014521/worthington-enterprises-reports-first-quarter-fiscal-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">expected&nbsp;first-quarter financial results</a>.
On Tuesday, the company reported a&nbsp;net sales decline of 17.5% Y/Y to &nbsp;$257.3 million, missing the consensus of $300.26 million.
The decline was attributed to the deconsolidation of the former Sustainable Energy Solutions (SES) segment in the fourth quarter of FY24 and lower volumes in the Building Products segment.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations fell to $48.4 million from $65.9 million a year ago quarter. Adjusted EPS&nbsp;of $0.50&nbsp;missed <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">the consensus of&nbsp;$0.74</a>.
By segment, Consumer Products&#8217; net sales stood at $117.6 million in the quarter, with adjusted EBITDA coming in at $17.8 million. Meanwhile, Building Products generated net sales of $139.7 million, down 15.8% Y/Y, in the quarter.
As of May 31, 2024, debt remained steady at $300 million and cash stood at $178.5 million.
Dividend: The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per common share, payable on December 27, 2024, to shareholders of record as of December 13, 2024.
In the quarter, the company repurchased 150,000 common shares for $6.8 million, averaging $45.35 per share.
Worthington Enterprises President and CEO Andy Rose stated, &#8220;Consumer Products had a solid quarter delivering year over year earnings growth despite flat volumes. Building Products earnings were down on weak volumes in our heating and cooking business, combined with lower contributions from ClarkDietrich, which continued to face some margin compression.&#8221;
&#8220;We have a positive long-term outlook especially with the recent recalibration of interest rates. Our market-leading products and brands are well-positioned to take advantage of long-term secular trends and should benefit when near-term headwinds subside and demand normalizes,&#8221; Rose&nbsp;added.
Price Action: WOR shares are down 5.03% at $43.01 premarket at the last check on Wednesday.

Why Is Worthington Enterprises Stock Diving Premarket On Wednesday?

After<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/09/41018169/s-p-500-hits-fresh-record-high-amid-surge-in-nvidia-shares-investor-sentiment-improves-further-fear"> resiliently resisting selling pressure, </a>the market could be in for some weakness on Wednesday as traders position themselves defensively ahead of the key Main Street catalysts for the rest of the week. The index futures are modestly lower early Wednesday. Traders may not have much to look forward to in terms of data as merely the routine weekly mortgage application data and new homes sales report for August are due for the session.
It would be interesting to see if the week mortgage applications volume data will receive a boost from the recent pullback in mortgage rates ahead and amid the Fed rate cut. Micron Technology Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>) earnings report is in the spotlight as traders strive to gauge artificial intelligence technology-related demand.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks ended Tuesday&#8217;s session higher yet again despite some nervous moments in early trading on the back of the September consumer confidence reading that unexpectedly fell. Following the data, Jamie Cox, Managing Partner at Harris Financial Group, said, &#8220;It&#8217;s never good to see consumer confidence fall this much.&#8221;
The strategist attributed the weak consumer confidence to concerns about the implications of the upcoming election, the increasing conflict around the world, and the stubbornly high cost of food and credit. The 50 basis-point Fed funds rate cut last week seemed more correct in light of these data, he added.
The major indices opened higher but reversed course after the data. After hitting a bottom in late-morning trading, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite and the broader S&amp;P 500 Index bounced back in a V-shaped recovery before moving sideways in the afternoon. Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) ended up nearly 4%, providing a shot in the arm the these two indices, and China&#8217;s stimulus measures also kept the risk-on mood intact.
The Nasdaq Composite ended at the 18K+ level for the first time since time since late-July. The S&amp;P 500 hit fresh intraday and closing highs.
Despite seeing volatility throughout the session, the 30-stock Dow Industrials Average also clocked new intraday and closing highs.

Insights From Analysts:
With Sept. 22, the first day of autumn, now in the rearview mirror, the historically rough month for the market is nearly over, said LPL Financial Chief Technical Strategist Adam Turnquist. With less than five trading sessions remaining before October, stocks are on track to outperform historical averages for September, barring any major market-moving events, he said. 
The strategist noted that the S&amp;P 500 is up 1.2% month-to-date, compared to the average decline of 0.7% since 1950. The declines in the past four years are at 4.9%, 9.3%, 4.8%, and 3.9%, respectively.
This bodes well for the fourth quarter, Turnquist said. &#8220;Based on historical performance for the S&amp;P 500, strong performance and momentum in the first nine months of the year could signal more gains ahead,&#8221; he said. Over the last 75 years, the fourth quarter has generated negative returns only eight times when momentum was strong during the first three quarters, he said.
Even In four of those eight years, returns in October–December were only slightly lower, in the range of 0% and -1.5%, Turnquist said. The largest fourth-quarter decline after positive performance through September came in 1987, which includes the infamous "Black Monday" market crash on October 19, when the S&amp;P 500 famously shed over 20% in one day, he added.
Looking ahead, the analyst sees Fed policy decisions, a much-anticipated Presidential election, and third-quarter earnings as major market catalysts.

Worthington Enterprises shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q1 financial results.

After the market ended at a fresh record on Monday, traders have positioned themselves for more gains. The index futures are modestly higher early Tuesday. China, the second largest economy in the world, decided to go bold, with the nation&#8217;s central bank announcing a series of stimulatory measures. This has sent commodities soaring, given China is a commodity-guzzling country. China&#8217;s growth has a bearing on the rest of the global economy as it is often called the world&#8217;s factory.
In the domestic market, traders may look ahead to a speech by a Federal Reserve official, a consumer confidence reading and a couple of house prices data. Momentum suggests additional gains but the overbought levels may introduce caution, especially ahead of key inflation data due this week and more labor market data that would roll out next week.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks closed Monday&#8217;s session modestly higher although trading was marked by some degree of volatility. The major indices opened higher, as they digested comments from Fed officials, and reacted to S&amp;P Global private sector activity readings, which showed the manufacturing sector contracted more than expected. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said in an interview with CNBC&#8217;s Squawk Box that he favored a slowdown in rate cuts.
The indices traded on a nervous note, with the Dow Industrials and the Nasdaq Composite dipping below the unchanged line in the mid-session before making a comeback. The Dow hit new intraday and closing highs, while the S&amp;P 500 Index, despite the mid-session volatility, traded in the green throughout the session and ended at a fresh high.
Among S&amp;P 500 sectors, real estate, utility, material, energy and consumer discretionary stocks advanced solidly. On the other hand, communication services, healthcare and IT stocks experienced modest weakness.

Insights From Analysts:
The Fed delivered in line with expectations and it is now time to move to neutral on defensives vs. cyclicals, said Morgan Stanley&#8217;s U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson. The valuation of defensives has reached extended levels and &#8220;we await more clarity on the labor data,&#8221; the strategist said. 
&#8220;Historically, defensives see fairly persistent outperformance 3-12 months following the Fed&#8217;s first cut, but can see initial, modest underperformance in the 1 month following the initial rate reduction,&#8221; Wilson said. The strategist recommended taking profits on the recent outperformance of defensives makes sense in the absence of knowing the outcome of the next labor report. 
Wilson said he continued to have conviction in his recommendation of large caps over small caps and also his bias for high-quality names.
WisdomTree Senior Economist and Wharton Professor Emeritus Jeremy Siegel said valuations across many sectors appear stretched by historical standards, particularly in the technology sector and AI-driven companies. &#8220;This reflects a broader market anticipation of substantial growth driven by technological advancements,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;As AI continues to evolve, it will be crucial to differentiate between companies that are genuinely creating value through innovative AI applications and those whose valuations are inflated by speculative interest.&#8221;
Siegel sees big rate cuts supporting small-cap companies that borrow at short-term borrowing rates as these companies have been the most impacted by the Fed&#8217;s aggressive rate hikes and they have some relatively cheap valuations in the U.S. market.

Nasdaq, S&P 500 Futures Firm, China's Economic Stimulus Fuels Commodities, Bitcoin Steady: Here's What Traders Should Be Watching Tuesday

Worthington Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WOR#NYSE">WOR</a>) will release earnings results for its first quarter of 2025 after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WOR/earnings">closing bell on Tuesday, Sept. 24.</a>
Analysts expect the Columbus, Ohio-based company to report quarterly earnings at 74 cents per share. That&#8217;s down from $2.06 per share in the year-ago period. Worthington projects to report quarterly revenue of $300.26 million for the quarter. according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On Sept. 10, Worthington Enterprises said it has begun modernization project at Chilton, Wisconsin, Campus.
With the recent buzz around Worthington Enterprises, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends. Worthington Enterprises currently has a dividend yield of 1.46% — a quarterly dividend of 17 cents a share. That amounts to about 68 cents a year.
To earn $500 monthly from Worthington Enterprises, start with a yearly target of $6,000 ($500 x 12 months).
Next, we take this amount and divide it by Worthington Enterprises' $0.68 dividend: $6,000 / $0.68 = 8,824 shares
So, an investor would need to own approximately $410,757 worth of Worthington Enterprises, or 8,824 shares to generate a monthly dividend income of $500.
Assuming a more conservative goal of $100 monthly ($1,200 annually), we do the same calculation: $1,200 / $0.68 = 1,765 shares, or $82,161 to generate a monthly dividend income of $100.
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
The dividend yield is calculated by dividing the annual dividend payment by the current stock price. As the stock price changes, the dividend yield will also change.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and its current price is $50, its dividend yield would be 4%. However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield would decrease to 3.33% ($2/$60).
Conversely, if the stock price decreases to $40, the dividend yield would increase to 5% ($2/$40).
Further, the dividend payment itself can also change over time, which can also impact the dividend yield. If a company increases its dividend payment, the dividend yield will increase even if the stock price remains the same. Similarly, if a company decreases its dividend payment, the dividend yield will decrease.
WOR Price Action: Shares of Worthington Enterprises rose 2.6% to close at $46.55 on Thursday.

Insights From Analysts:
Fund manager Louis Navellier is confident of the tech rally continuing. &#8220;Being underweight in tech remains a contrarian bet,&#8221; he said in a note to clients. &#8220;With the end of the quarter this week, we will shortly get another round of earnings which may give new perspectives on earnings momentum, but may also reemphasize the concentration at the top, as the AI theme gains momentum,&#8221; he said.
Carson Group&#8217;s Chief Market Strategist Ryan Detrick pointed to a historical trend that is positive for the market. Since 1950, the market has never peaked in June, he said.
