U.S. stock markets saw a strong recovery on Tuesday, with both the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 climbing over 2%, nearly offsetting Monday&#8217;s losses. Investors took advantage of recent volatility to buy the dip, showing continued confidence in the U.S. economy&#8217;s ability to avoid a recession. 
Gains were observed in both small-cap and blue-chip stocks, reflecting broad improvement in market sentiment.
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), often referred to as the market&#8217;s fear gauge, decreased by almost 40% on Tuesday after spiking 65% on Monday. 
According to the FedWatch Tool, the likelihood of a 50-basis-point interest rate cut decreased to 90% Monday to 64% Tuesday. 
As traders reassess Fed rate cuts, Treasury yields increased during the day, with the 10-year yield rising by 11 basis points to 3.9% and the two-year yield climbing 9 basis points to 4.01%.
The rebound of the U.S. dollar was supported by rising yields and diminished expectations of a larger Federal Reserve rate cut in September. The dollar increased by 0.8% against the low-yielding Japanese yen, breaking a streak of five consecutive days of losses.
In terms of macroeconomic data, the day was relatively quiet, with only June&#8217;s trade figures making news. The U.S. trade deficit narrowed to $73.1 billion in June 2024 from a revised 20-month high of $75 billion in May, slightly above market forecasts of a $72.5-billion gap. Exports increased by 1.5% to $265.9 billion, the second-highest on record, while imports grew by a more modest 0.6% to $339 billion.
Gold and oil prices both decreased by 0.7% and 0.8%, respectively, marking their fourth consecutive session of declines.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rebounded by 4.9% after experiencing a 7% drop on Monday.

"Air market capacity has been constrained by e-commerce demand, and ocean routing has been significantly disrupted by geopolitical events in the Red Sea, causing less frequent services due to blank sailings, longer transit times as well as port congestion. We have continued to adjust to the disruptions and uneven demand, keeping costs in check while we work to bring efficiency back in line with historical expectations," commented Jeffrey S. Musser, president and Chief Executive Officer.
"Expenses are still high compared to our 30% efficiency target (operating income as a percentage of revenue less directly related cost of transportation and other expenses), with compensation being our largest and most variable operating expense," commented Bradley S. Powell, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

U.S. stocks look to bounce back on Tuesday following an across-the-board sell-off in the previous session. Strategists say<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40179293/strategist-warns-theres-a-serious-collapse-thats-coming-after-mondays-global-market-crash-tons-a"> all the yen carry trades haven&#8217;t been unwound yet,</a> which raises the specter of incremental weakness. That said, positive reactions to earnings from tech players such as Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) and Navitas Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVTS#NASDAQ">NVTS</a>) could buoy sentiment.
Tech stocks are reversing course, riding on these positive earnings. The CBOE Volatility Index, widely known as VIX, has pulled back notably toward the 32 level. Given the absence of any major catalysts, volatility will likely remain contained.

Cues From Last Session:
Wall Street closed Monday&#8217;s session notably lower, although off its intraday lows. The global equity market plunge set in motion by the Japanese market on Monday spilled over into the U.S. The major averages opened notably lower but a report that showed that the service sector moved into expansion territory helped them trim some of the losses. Yet the averages closed the session sharply lower.
The S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite fell for a third straight session, settling at three-month lows, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average retreated to its lowest since June 14.
The sell-off was across the board, with the IT, communication services and consumer discretionary stocks plunging hard.

The recent correction is healthy for the market, according to WisdomTree Senior Economist and Wharton professor Jeremy Siegel. Volatility has finally returned to the market, the economist said, adding that this equity risk is what creates a premium long-term return.
A correction of 5-10% from the highs is healthy, Siegel said. &#8220;I would be more worried had the market continued to surge higher with no correction and created more bubble-like conditions,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;In the short run, if the Fed does not indicate that it will react soon, the outlook is very unsettled.&#8221;
Carson Group&#8217;s Chief Market Strategist Ryan Detrick sees light at the end of the tunnel. Drawing on historical data, the strategist noted that when the S&amp;P 500 Index falls by at least 1% on Thursday, Friday, and Monday, strong returns are typically observed three months later. Historically, this pattern has resulted in gains 90% of the time, with an average increase of around 10%.
&#8220;A year later up 18 of 21 and up 22.5% on avg,&#8221; he added.

UBS Upgrades Expeditors Intl to Neutral, Raises Price Target to $137

Dorian LPG (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lpg#NYSE">LPG</a>) is set to report its first-quarter fiscal 2025 results&nbsp;on Thursday, Aug 1.
The company, which operates a fleet of very large gas carriers for transporting liquefied petroleum gases like propane and butane on long-haul voyages, mainly from the United States/ Middle East to Asia, has an impressive track record with respect to earnings per share, having surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the last four quarters (missing the mark once). The average beat is 0.4%.

<h3>Dorian LPG Ltd. Price and EPS Surprise</h3>
<img alt="Dorian LPG Ltd. Price and EPS Surprise" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/charts/dc/1722254895.png" style="height:297px; width:610px" title="" />
Dorian LPG Ltd. price-eps-surprise | Dorian LPG Ltd. Quote
</div>
Given this backdrop, let us unearth the factors likely to have influenced Dorian LPG&#39;s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
We expect LPG&#39;s fiscal first-quarter bottom-line performance to have been affected by higher vessel operating expenses, mainly due to the increased average number of vessels in its fleet. High fuel costs are likely to have shot up total expenses at LPG, currently carrying a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell). Charter hire expenses for vessels time chartered-in from third parties are anticipated to have been higher in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 from the year-ago quarter.
The increased demand for liquefied petroleum gases is likely to have aided the top line in the to-be-reported quarter. An increase in average time charter equivalent (TCE) rates and fleet size is expected to have aided revenues. TCE rates refer to a key measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel.
Highlights of Q4 Earnings
Dorian LPG&#39;s fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 earnings (excluding 5 cents from non-recurring items) of $1.91 per share surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.81. Total revenues of $141.4 million missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 9.8%.
Stocks to Consider
Here are a few stocks from the broader Zacks&nbsp;Transportation&nbsp;sector that investors may consider, as our model shows that these have the right combination of elements to beat on earnings this season.
Copa Holdings&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cpa#NYSE">CPA</a>) has an Earnings ESP of +1.55% and carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) at present.
CPA will release results on Aug 7. Upbeat air-travel demand is likely to have aided the second-quarter performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for CPA&#39;s second-quarter 2024 earnings has been revised downward by 18.9% in the past 60 days to $2.87 per share. CPA has an impressive earnings surprise history, having surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the preceding four quarters, the average beat being 20.2%.
Expeditors International of Washington&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/expd#NYSE">EXPD</a>) currently has an Earnings ESP of +2.22% and a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). EXPD is scheduled to report second-quarter 2024 earnings on Aug 6. Lackluster volumes (with respect to air-freight tonnage and ocean containers) due to weakening demand and falling rates are likely to have hurt EXPD&#39;s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings has been revised 3.3% upward in the last 60 days. EXPD surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in only one of the preceding four quarters and missed thrice, the average negative earnings surprise being 3.4%.
