After dilly-dallying in recent sessions amid anticipation ahead of Nvidia Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) earnings, market mood is settling in. The index futures were higher in early trading. Nvidia shares have clawed part of their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40619714/nvidia-slumps-nearly-5-in-premarket-dragging-down-super-micro-micron-and-other-peers-whats-going-on">losses seen early in the premarket session</a> and could recover when sell-side analysis starts coming in. Some strong tech earnings could provide the offsetting impact.
The preliminary GDP data due ahead of the market will be parsed by traders for cues on growth and inflation. A speech by a Federal Reserve official is also on traders&#8217; radar. More importantly, Friday&#8217;s consumer price expenditure index data called the Fed&#8217;s favorite inflation gauge, could keep the market on tenterhook. The Labor Day holiday on Monday could dampen trading volume, and this could impart volatility, although traders do not attach much significance to low-volume moves.

Insights From Analysts:
As the presidential election campaign heads into the final sprint, Michael Zezas, Managing Director, Head of U.S. Public Policy Research &amp; Municipal Credit Strategy at Morgan Stanley, said before the election, not the ups and downs of the campaign but the business cycle will probably affect the markets. &#8220;We don't think investors' near-term strategies will focus on the election,&#8221; he said. 
Following the election, Zezas said he expects the election impact to be more pronounced in specific sectors. A Democratic win may be negative for energy and telecom stocks but positive for clean-energy stocks, he said.
&#8220;The outcome of the election could affect the U.S. Treasury yield curve, which plots bond yields against maturity dates, as well as the U.S. dollar,&#8221; he said. Trump&#8217;s insinuation of higher tariffs will likely weigh on economic growth and lead to a steeper yield curve but it would be positive for the dollar, he added.
LPL Financial Chief Economist Jeffrey Roach said should the economy worsen, the equity market could see volatility. The August payroll report, due on Sept. 6, or the upcoming months&#8217; reports could show some underlying weakness in the broader hiring trends. He also noted caution among consumers who may not splurge on big-ticket items as the economy progresses into late-cycle dynamics.
LPL said it maintained its investment perspective of being modestly overweight on fixed income, funded from cash. This, the firm said, can help buffer against equity market volatility should economic conditions worsen, while also providing attractive income.
Upcoming Economic Data
<ul>
<li>The Labor Department will release the weekly jobless claims report at 8:30 a.m. EDT. The number of individuals claiming unemployment benefits may come in at 230,000 for the week ended Aug. 24, down slightly from 232,000 in the previous week.</li>
<li>The Bureau of Economic Analysis is due to release the preliminary (second read) GDP data for the second quarter at 8:30 a.m. EDT. Economists, on average, expect the annualized pace of quarter-over-quarter growth to be left unrevised at 2.8% compared to the first quarter&#8217;s 1.4% growth. Traders may also focus on the personal consumption expenditure index and the GDP price deflator, which are considered as inflation measures.</li>
<li>The National Association of Realtors is scheduled to release its pending home sales index for July at 10 a.m. EDT, with the consensus calling for a 0.2% month-over-month increase compared to June&#8217;s 4.8% growth.</li>

Needham Reiterates Hold on Cooper Companies

Cooper Companies shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q3 financial results and issued Q4 and FY25 guidance above estimates.

Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Guidance
The Company raised its fiscal year 2024 financial guidance. Details are summarized as follows:
<ul>
<li>Fiscal 2024 total revenue of $3,892 - $3,913 million (organic growth of 8% to 8.5%)
<ul>
<li>CVI revenue of $2,606 - $2,618 million (organic growth of 9% to 9.5%)</li>
<li>CSI revenue of $1,286 - $1,294 million (organic growth of 5.5% to 6.5%)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Fiscal 2024 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $3.64- $3.67</li>
<li>Fiscal fourth quarter 2024 total revenue of $1,015 - $1,036 million (organic growth of 7% to 9.5%)
<ul>
<li>CVI revenue of $673 - $685 million (organic growth of 8% to 10%)</li>
<li>CSI revenue of $342 - $350 million (organic growth of 6% to 8%)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Fiscal fourth quarter 2024 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.98 to $1.01</li>
</ul>
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share guidance excludes amortization and impairment of intangible assets, and certain income or gains and charges or expenses including acquisition and integration costs which we may incur as part of our continuing operations.
With respect to the Company's guidance expectations, the Company has not reconciled non-GAAP diluted earnings per share guidance to GAAP diluted earnings per share due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting acquisition-related, integration and restructuring charges and expenses, which are reconciling items between the non-GAAP and GAAP measure. Due to the unknown effect, timing and potential significance of such charges and expenses that impact GAAP diluted earnings per share, the Company is not able to provide such guidance.

Guidance

The Cooper Companies Sees Q4 EPS $0.98-$1.01 Vs $0.96 Est.; Revenue $1.015B-$1.036B Vs $1.01B Est. FY25 EPS $3.64-$3.67 Vs $3.57 Est.; Revenue $3.892B-$3.913B Vs $3.89B Est.

Cooper Companies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COO#NYSE">COO</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $0.96 per share which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $0.91 by 5.49 percent. This is a 14.29 percent increase over earnings of $0.84 per share from the same period last year.

Wall Street faces a wave of risk-off sentiment on Wednesday, as traders adopt a cautious stance ahead of NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) earnings, which are set to be released <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/24/08/40604296/nvidias-next-earnings-report-could-swing-its-market-cap-by-300-billion-and-increase-the-s-p-500-gai">after the market close.</a>
At midday trading in New York, all major equity indices were in the red, weighed down by broad declines in chipmakers and tech stocks.
The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NYSE">SOXX</a>) fell 2%, underperforming the broader tech-heavy Nasdaq 100, down 1.1%. 
The CBOE Volatility Index or VIX, a key barometer of the fear in the market, rose 8%. 
As the last of the Magnificent Seven megacaps to report earnings, Nvidia&#8217;s results are viewed as a crucial indicator of whether the recent market rebound has more room to run, potentially pushing toward new all-time highs, or if it&#8217;s time for investors to dial back risk.
Key metrics to watch include whether Nvidia surpasses the projected $28.7 billion in quarterly revenue — a staggering 156% increase from the same quarter last year — and $0.645 earnings per share, more than triple from the same period in 2022. 
Nvidia&#8217;s forward guidance will also be critical, as investors seek insight into the demand for its leading AI-related chips and any challenges posed by China.
In a significant achievement during Wednesday&#8217;s session, Warren Buffett&#8217;s Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) reached <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/08/40604676/warren-buffetts-berkshire-hathaway-breaks-1-trillion-poll-points-to-big-pharma-not-tech-as-next-cont">the milestone of a $1 trillion market valuation.</a>
The U.S. dollar is showing a modest recovery, up 0.4% after closing Tuesday at its lowest level since July 2023. Treasury yields remain stable, while gold is struggling, down 0.6%, with silver experiencing a sharper 2% decline.
Oil prices continue to fall, with WTI crude down 1.3%, as traders unload the risk premium amid easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and less concerning Libyan production disruptions than initially feared.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) remains under pressure, down 1% to $58,850, following a more than 7% decline over the past two sessions.

US Stocks, Chipmakers Fall Ahead Of Nvidia Earnings, Berkshire Hits $1 Trillion, Super Micro Computer Sinks: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Sentiment on Wall Street could be guarded until Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40585459/nvidia-stock-q2-earnings-preview-analyst-says-ai-cycle-far-from-over-company-has-fi">earnings are in the rearview mirror. </a>The index futures are barely holding up early Wednesday. Given the absence of any major catalyst, stocks could tread water and could move about listlessly. That said, the retail space could see some strength, encouraged by Nordstrom, Inc.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JWN#NYSE">JWN</a>) earnings, while some positive tech earnings could bolster sentiment toward that space.
Market strategist Ed Yardeni said in Yardeni Research&#8217;s weekly preview that Nvidia earnings are a function of AI investments by mostly other large-cap tech companies, making the AI stalwart the fulcrum of not only the AI trade but a big portion of the entire stock market rally. &#8220;Nvidia&#8217;s earnings will begin to be supported by rising demand from other tech and many non-tech companies in the S&amp;P 493,&#8221; he said.

Cues From Last Session 
U.S. stocks meandered back and forth across the unchanged line on Tuesday before ending higher, with IT stocks providing the thrust. After a negative start, the indices recovered after a report showed consumer confidence rose to the highest since February amid an improvement in inflation expectations. The averages went about in a listless manner and yet had enough momentum to close in the green.
The Dow Industrials scaled a fresh closing high, although the 30-stock blue-chip average could not break above its intraday high. The S&amp;P 500 inched further toward its record close of 5,667.20 hit on July 16, while small-caps fell for a second straight session following their recent runup.
