Stock Market Rally: The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average are on six-week winning streaks, closing at record highs last Friday. Earnings reports and the upcoming presidential election will play a key role in determining whether stocks continue to rise.

Earnings Season: About 20% of S&P 500 companies will report earnings this week, including major transportation-related firms like Tesla, General Motors, and Boeing. Other big names include Verizon, Coca-Cola, AT&T, and UPS.

Boeing Strike Resolution: Boeing and its machinists union have reached a contract proposal that could end a strike lasting over a month. Workers will vote on the deal, which includes significant pay raises and bonuses.

U.S. Presidential Election: The 2024 election is just over two weeks away, with a tight race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Their platforms on issues like Social Security, drug prices, and abortion are being scrutinized.

WNBA Championship: The New York Liberty won their first WNBA title, wrapping up a season of record-breaking viewership and growth for the league. The WNBA has secured a new $2.2 billion media rights deal and will expand both its season and teams in 2025.
