Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist Mohamed El-Erian underscored in an X post that volatility was the dominant theme for U.S. financial assets as the stocks recovered sharply on Tuesday after Monday&#8217;s heavy selloff.
According to him, Tuesday&#8217;s session followed the &#8220;exact opposite session on Monday,&#8221; which had seen a decline in equities, a fall in the dollar, and a rise in gold prices. 
He was of the opinion that &#8220;Given all the uncertainties in play, it is prudent to expect continued volatility in the weeks ahead.&#8221;

Ryan Detrick from Carson Research highlighted a trend in the market, the occurrence of which has marked the bottom within the NYSE in 1987, 2009, 2011 and 2020.
According to the data, over 89% of stocks advanced, with 89% of trading volume on Tuesday. This has happened on two days within nine trading days on April 9 and April 22.
This market signal's reliability stems from extreme market breadth, indicating oversold conditions, often preceding rebounds as investor sentiment shifts.
However, the past performance isn't a guaranteed predictor, especially with current pressures like Trump's tariff policies and potential Federal Reserve rate changes.
Detrick said that after such a market signal, the market was &#8220;Up nearly 25% on avg 6 months later.&#8221;

According to Louis Navellier of Navellier &amp; Associates, investors, including Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, have been &#8220;needlessly worried&#8221; about inflation and stagflation that has not materialized. &#8220;The reality is that deflation has arrived in the wake of the lowest crude oil prices in the past four years, so investors, the Fed, and our allies have been unnecessarily worried over nothing,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;The stock market is a manic crowd that likes to react first and think second. It is now time to think and prosper during another spectacular earnings announcement season. Spring has arrived, and consumers are increasingly getting out and about, which is why the strongest retail sales in two years just occurred,&#8221; he added.

Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) CEO Jim Taiclet outlined an ambitious plan to enhance the F-35 fighter jet <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/03/44445996/lockheed-martin-shares-sink-after-major-us-air-force-contract-goes-to-boeing-what-to-know">following the company&#8217;s loss</a> of the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program contract to Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>).
What Happened: During Lockheed&#8217;s first quarter of 2025 earnings call on Tuesday, Taiclet said he has challenged his team to deliver &#8220;80% of 6th Gen capability at 50% of the cost&#8221; by applying technologies developed for its NGAD bid to the existing F-35 platform.
&#8220;We are moving forward and moving out on applying all the technologies that we developed for our NGAD bid onto our embedded base of F-35 and F-22,&#8221; Taiclet said, describing his vision as a &#8220;5th generation plus concept&#8221; for the F-35.
The aerospace giant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44922218/lockheed-martin-posts-strong-q1-says-maintained-2025-guidance-doesnt-include-tariff-impact">reported strong first-quarter results</a> with earnings per share of $7.28, beating analyst estimates by $0.97, and revenue of $17.96 billion, up 4.47% year-over-year.
Lockheed maintained its full-year guidance despite tariff challenges and the NGAD decision, projecting $73.75-74.75 billion in revenue and $27.00-27.30 in earnings per share. The company returned $1.5 billion to shareholders through dividends and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44922218/lockheed-martin-posts-strong-q1-says-maintained-2025-guidance-doesnt-include-tariff-impact">share repurchases during the quarter</a>.

Why It Matters: The March F-47 contract award to Boeing represented a significant setback for Lockheed, with Reuters reporting the deal could be worth <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/contracts/25/03/44445996/lockheed-martin-shares-sink-after-major-us-air-force-contract-goes-to-boeing-what-to-know">hundreds of billions of dollars over its multi-decade lifetime</a>. This followed Lockheed&#8217;s elimination from consideration for the Navy&#8217;s next-generation carrier-based stealth fighter.
Despite these challenges, Taiclet emphasized the F-35&#8217;s continued importance. With approximately 1,100 aircraft already delivered and a projected global fleet exceeding 3,500, he positioned the F-35 as the &#8220;quarterback&#8221; in future air combat operations.
&#8220;We think we can get most of the way to 6th Gen at half the cost,&#8221; Taiclet said.
The company also highlighted recent contract wins worth up to $10 billion for missile systems, including Precision Strike Missiles, THAAD, and JASSM/LRASM.
Price Action: Lockheed Martin stock closed at $462.08 on Tuesday, up 0.82% for the day. In pre-market trading, the stock was up an additional 0.85% at $466.00. Year to date, however, the stock is down 4.18%.

The CEO of&nbsp;Chevron Corporation&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), Mike Wirth, recently discussed the current dynamics of the oil industry, addressing the volatility of&nbsp;oil prices, capital expenditure strategies,&nbsp;and geopolitical challenges.
What Happened: Wirth attributed the recent dip in West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil prices, nearing $60 per barrel, to expected demand slowdowns and increased supply. He cited macroeconomic uncertainties, particularly tariff and trade tensions, as the primary reasons for concerns about reduced global demand, in a recent interview with CNBC.

When asked about recession, the Chevron CEO stated, &#8220;..there&#8217;s no sign that we see at this point that we&#8217;re in or close to a recession.&#8221; However, he acknowledged slowing growth and volatility. 
Despite the market&#8217;s volatility, Wirth emphasized Chevron&#8217;s strong balance sheet and&nbsp;disciplined approach to capital expenditure. The company has proactively cut its capital expenditure&nbsp;by $1 billion for 2025&nbsp;and announced cost reductions of&nbsp;$2-3 billion over the next&nbsp;two years.
The CEO also stated at $70 per barrel crude oil price, they expect $10 billion of incremental free cash flow growth in 2025-26, while at $60 per barrel, the free cash flow expectation is at $9 billion.
On tariffs, Wirth downplayed their&nbsp;direct impact on Chevron, acknowledging&nbsp;potential indirect effects through macroeconomic&nbsp;shifts and global trade dynamics. He also highlighted the administration&#8217;s&nbsp;supportive energy policies, which recognize&nbsp;the U.S.&#8217;s&nbsp;abundant energy resources as a&nbsp;driver of economic prosperity, energy&nbsp;security, and national security.

Why It Matters: Wirth&#8217;s comments come in the wake of Chevron&#8217;s ongoing negotiations with the Trump administration over its operations in Venezuela. Wirth has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44415905/chevron-ceo-reportedly-seeks-trumps-support-for-venezuela-exit-extension">engaging </a>with Trump's cabinet members, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, seeking an extension to wind down the company's operations in the country. In Tuesday&#8217;s interview, he described the situation as complex and noted that Chevron&nbsp;is engaging with the U.S.&nbsp;Department of Treasury to advocate for maintaining its presence.
Furthermore, the impact of trade tensions between the U.S. and China on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44860334/china-cuts-us-oil-purchases-by-90-boosts-imports-from-canada-to-new-heights">oil industry </a>cannot be overlooked. Recent reports indicated that Chinese refiners have cut their U.S. oil imports by approximately 90% since 2023 due to escalating trade tensions, turning instead to Canadian crude.
Chevron holds a value rating of 80.91% and a growth rating of 35.05%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CVX" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga's Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.
