Waste Management shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q2 financial results.

U.S. stock futures rose on Tuesday after ending on a mixed note on Monday. Futures of major benchmark indices were higher.
Despite a mixed close, the S&amp;P 500 posted its sixth day of record closing high, and the Nasdaq also notched an all-time high on Monday.
The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee&#8217;s two-day meeting will begin today, ahead of its press conference, which will be held on Wednesday afternoon.
Investors await results from Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), Procter &amp; Gamble Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PG#NYSE">PG</a>), and Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>) today.
Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.41% and the two-year bond was at 3.92%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 96.9% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its July meeting.

The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, were higher in premarket on Friday. The SPY was up 0.23% at $638.40, while the QQQ advanced 0.42% to $570.54, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.
Cues From Last Session:
On Monday, the energy and information technology sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed higher, bucking the trend as most sectors, including real estate, materials, and utilities, recorded losses.
This occurred as U.S. stocks settled mixed, with the S&amp;P 500 itself recording gains, as markets reacted to the U.S.-EU trade deal struck over the weekend.
The new agreement means the U.S. will impose a 15% tariff on EU imports like pharmaceuticals and automobiles, while certain sectors such as steel, aluminum, and copper will face steeper tariffs of up to 50%.
All three major indices closed the last week higher, with the 30-stock Dow gaining around 1.3% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq adding 1%. The broad market S&amp;P 500 climbed around 1.5% last week.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) jumped 3% after the U.S. announced lower-than-expected tariffs on European goods, including autos, and following CEO Elon Musk's revelation of a $16.5 billion deal with Samsung Electronics to produce next-generation chips.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior Economist Jeremy Siegel highlighted in his weekly commentary that the U.S. economy is still proving resilient despite global tensions and trade barriers.
However, he cautioned that investors should prepare for some economic drag as these tariffs take hold in the second half of the year. &#8220;The cumulative inflation impact from tariffs is likely to be modest, perhaps 1.5% to 2% over two years, while the GDP drag remains limited and manageable,&#8221; he said.
He explained that the market has come to terms with this dynamic and continues to look ahead to more powerful, longer-term forces, particularly the ongoing AI.
&#8220;I think the market rightly assesses this will buoy productivity and earnings. In particular, the immediate expensing provision for capital equipment that came in the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill' is a meaningful tailwind for corporate investment, counteracting some negative tariff effects.&#8221;
According to him, earnings season is not showing signs of a breakdown. While there is some cautious forward guidance, the tone has been far more constructive than feared. &#8220;I'm encouraged by year-end earnings estimates, which remain stable or even modestly positive. I continue to believe we are in a healthy bull market with no signs of internal deterioration,&#8221; he added.
From a valuation perspective, Siegel said that some argue markets are expensive.
&#8220;When measuring forward P/E ratios, we are increasingly pricing in next year's earnings, which are supported by strong productivity trends and expanding technology adoption. The 2025–2026 EPS outlook is solid, and while earnings might come down from lofty year-ahead outlooks, I continue to see upside in equities,&#8221; he added.
Meanwhile, Ryan Detrick from Carson Research also reiterated that the market rally has been &#8220;historic,&#8221; but it &#8220;likely has legs left.&#8221;

Pre-Market Outlook

Boeing, Procter & Gamble And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Tuesday

2025 Outlook
With two quarters of the year complete, the Company is confident in its ability to deliver upon its full-year outlook for adjusted operating EBITDA and is positioned to deliver free cash flow in excess of its initial target.
<ul>
<li>The Company delivered adjusted operating EBITDA in the first six months of the year in line with its expectations and initial guidance. The Company is affirming its adjusted operating EBITDA guidance midpoint of $7.550 billion and narrowing its range slightly to $7.475 and $7.625 billion.(a)</li>
<li>Free cash flow is now projected to be between $2.8 and $2.9 billion, an increase of $125 million from the Company's initial guidance.(a) The increase in the free cash flow outlook is driven by recently enacted tax policy that restores bonus depreciation to 100%.</li>
<li>Total Company revenue is now expected to be between $25.275 and $25.475 billion. The decrease from prior expectations is primarily related to the recent decline in recycled commodity prices which has an outsized impact on the Company's low-margin recycling brokerage business, as well as the impacts of a decline in certain Collection and Disposal volumes in the first quarter of 2025 due to the particularly harsh winter weather.(g)</li>
<li>Adjusted operating EBITDA margin is now expected to be between 29.6% and 29.9%, an increase from the prior guidance of between 29.2% and 29.7%.(a)</li>
</ul>
Fish concluded, "We set a high bar in 2025, and through the first half of the year we have met those high expectations. Our team is focused on serving our customers, optimizing our costs, and innovating to support differentiation and growth. Executing on these priorities is expected to drive strong results in the back half of 2025 and position us to deliver on our guidance, achieve attractive returns on investments and grow shareholder value."

President Donald Trump announced a 15% tariff <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46650830/donald-trump-announces-15-tariff-trade-agreement-with-eu-ending-months-of-trade-uncertainty">trade deal with the European Union</a> (EU) on Sunday, putting an end to several months of trade uncertainty with the U.S.'s biggest trade partner. 
The tariff rate is a significant drop from the 30% Trump threatened on July 12 and the 20% he proposed on April 2. Trump stated that the EU will not impose a tariff on U.S. imports, describing the deal as "satisfactory to both sides."
Investors will assess a slew of macro and micro indicators this week, as the Federal Reserve&#8217;s interest rate decision, along with the second-quarter GDP data, will be released on Wednesday.

Cues From Last Session:
On Friday, industrials, materials, and consumer discretionary stocks led the gains among S&amp;P 500 sectors, while energy and communication services stocks ended the session lower, bucking the overall positive trend.
U.S. stocks settled higher, with the S&amp;P 500 marking its 14th record close this year, fueled by optimism over corporate earnings and global trade talk progress, which bolstered risk assets.
All three major indices saw weekly gains, with the 30-stock Dow rising approximately 1.3%, the broad S&amp;P 500 climbing about 1.5%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq adding 1%.
Phillips 66 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSX#NYSE">PSX</a>) reported better-than-expected second-quarter financial results. Conversely, Carter&#8217;s Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRI#NYSE">CRI</a>) shares dropped around 20% after the company missed second-quarter adjusted EPS estimates, suspended its fiscal 2025 guidance, and cited tariff impacts.

The Director and Senior Investment Strategist at Charles Schwab &amp; Co., Kevin Gordon, highlighted that the week ahead was crucial with important market-moving data scheduled to be released during this period.

According to Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research, &#8220;Naturally, the main event will be the Federal Open Market Committee's widely expected decision (Wed) to leave the federal funds rate unchanged. We are among those expecting no change.&#8221;
However, he expects that Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8216;s press conference (Wed) will be relatively dovish, raising the odds of a September rate cut. &#8220;Nevertheless, we remain in the none-and-done camp in 2025 for now,&#8221; Yardeni added.
However, senior economist Mohamed El Erian noted that Trump&#8217;s Fed visit last week underscored &#8220;differing interpretations.&#8221;
According to him, some viewed it as a &#8220;truce,&#8221; citing the President&#8217;s pledge not to fire Chair Powell and his expectation that the Chair would &#8220;do the right thing&#8221; by cutting interest rates.
Whereas others saw the visit as an escalation, aligning with Steve Bannon&#8217;s &#8220;flood the zone&#8221; strategy. &#8220;They point to the awkward televised exchange between the President and Chair Powell regarding the renovation&#8217;s cost as evidence of continued and clear friction,&#8221; he added.
&#8220;This week promises to be an exceptionally busy one, packed with notable policy decisions, major economic data releases, and systemically important corporate earnings – all set against the backdrop of seasonally thinner market liquidity,&#8221; Erian added.
Meanwhile, Jamie Cox, the managing partner for Harris Financial Group spoke about the U.S. deal with EU.
&#8220;When Japan broke down and made a deal the EU had little choice. The biggest piece in the trade deal puzzle still remains, and the Chinese are unlikely to be as willing to fold. The next big durable theme in markets is security, and the EU deal only accelerates it,&#8221; he said.
