After a turbulent week in the markets, the bulls reclaimed dominance on Wall Street during Friday&#8217;s session, with indices and sectors trading in positive territory as investors welcomed the latest corporate earnings results and further confirmation of inflation progressing toward <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">the Fed&#8217;s 2% target.</a>
In June, the Personal Consumption Expenditure price index – the Fed&#8217;s preferred measure of inflation – dropped to 2.5% year-on-year, as anticipated, marking the lowest level since February 2021. The core component slightly exceeded expectations, remaining <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/07/39987142/feds-favorite-inflation-gauge-keeps-falling-but-fed-wants-durable-downward-trend-economist-says">steady at 2.6% annually.</a>
Investors are unwavering in their expectations for a Fed interest rate cut in September, assigning it a 100% probability and factoring in nearly three cumulative rate cuts by year-end.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average led the charge on Friday, with the blue-chip index surging 1.9%, setting the stage for its strongest session this year. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 rebounded significantly, climbing 1.6%, which halted the tech sector&#8217;s decline but wasn&#8217;t enough to reverse a negative weekly close. 
The Russell 2000, as tracked by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), also posted a solid gain of 1.3%.
Rate-sensitive sectors continued their rally, with homebuilders, as tracked by the SPDR Homebuilders ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XHB#NYSE">XHB</a>), rising over 3% for the day, reaching all-time highs and marking their third <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39988310/homebuilder-stocks-rally-to-record-highs-on-rate-cut-frenzy-but-housing-sales-still-struggle">consecutive positive weekly close.</a>
In the bond market, Treasuries rose as yields dipped slightly, especially in longer-dated maturities.
Gold also rallied, increasing by 1%, while oil prices dropped by 1%. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 2.5%, marking its second consecutive positive session after three negative ones.

EPS of $8.49 beat the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $7.95</a>. The stock price gained after the results.
Revenue growth of 1.3% in Internet, 36.9% in Mobile service, and 2.1% in Commercial aided the top line.
Charter lost 154,000 residential Internet customers, largely driven by the end of the FCC's Affordable Connectivity Program ("ACP") subsidies, compared to 70,000 additions last year. Residential video customers decreased by 393,000 versus a decrease of 189,000 in the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 100 bps to 41.4%.&nbsp;
The quarterly free cash flow of $1.3 billion improved from $668 million in the prior year, primarily due to higher net cash flows from operating activities.&nbsp;
As of June 30, 2024, Charter served 30.4 million residential and SMB Internet customers.&nbsp;
Net cash flow from operating activities totaled $3.9 billion. The company held $602 million in cash and equivalents as of June 30, 2024.
Outlook: Charter Communications&nbsp;expects a 2024 capex of $12.0 billion (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/04/38461906/charter-communications-loses-residential-internet-customers-in-q1-reports-sharp-drop-in-video-subsc" rel="noreferrer noopener">prior $12.2 billion – $12.4 billion</a>).

Charter Communication stock has lost over 20% in the last 12 months.

The analyst expected the second-quarter and third-quarter results to highlight the headwinds on broadband pricing and volumes.

Guidance

Charter Communications Q2 Sees Subscriber Loss On ACP Expiry, Still Beats Expectations (UPDATED)

After the severe pounding the tech space received in the past three sessions, it might be rebound time. However, any recovery will largely hinge on whether key inflation data confirms the continued downward trajectory in pricing pressure. The major index futures are notably higher early Friday. Tamer inflation data could reinforce hopes of a September rate hike and more for the rest of the year, proving supportive of the market rally, especially amid the small-cap space.
Traders may also take cues from some quarterly reports as they nervously wait for next week&#8217;s earnings news flow from the likes of Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Amazon, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and the Federal Reserve&#8217;s rate-setting meeting.

In premarket trading on Friday,&nbsp;the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) moved down 0.75% to $542.43, while the&nbsp;Invesco QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) gained 1.00% to $462.87, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks closed Thursday&#8217;s session on a mixed note, as early optimism generated by strong GDP data did not sustain throughout the session. Negative tech news weighed down on the Nasdaq Composite and the S&amp;P 500 indices, sending them notably lower for a third straight day. The former pulled back toward its lowest close since June 7, and the latter slumped to the lowest since June 11.
The 30-stock Dow Jones Industrials Average ignored a negative start and traded mostly above the unchanged line, with International Business Machine Co.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>) 4%+ gain lending support.
Second-quarter GDP rose at an annualized quarter-over-quarter pace of 2.8%, faster than the 1.4% growth in the first quarter and the core PCE inflation slowed. Comerica Chief Economist Bill Adams commented on the report, &#8220;The GDP report will reassure the Fed that there's no need for immediate rate cuts.&#8221;
&#8220;The Fed is expected to hold their policy rate steady at next Wednesday's decision and signal a cut coming in September,&#8221; he added.
Energy, industrial and utility stocks gained ground in the session, while the IT and communication services stocks were among the biggest decliners.

Insights From Analysts:
Commenting on the recent market pullback, spearheaded by the tech stocks, LPL Chief Technical Strategist Adam Turnquist said, &#8220;Technical damage is beginning to mount for the broader market.&#8221;
Thursday&#8217;s decline led the S&amp;P 500 to break below key support at the 20-day moving average, violating a short-term uptrend. &#8220;Momentum confirmed the breakdown as select indicators turned bearish for the first time in several months, &#8221; he said.
Turnquist said the pullback was due to the weakness seen in mega-caps as well as the historically overbought conditions. &#8220;The good news is that there is still a lot of support in play before the S&amp;P 500's longer-term uptrend is challenged and strong momentum tends to be sustainable on a longer-term basis, although the path is not linear,&#8221; the strategist said.&#8217;
&#8220;Based on this backdrop, we recommend a neutral equities allocation and tactically buying dips once support is established and momentum improves.&#8221;
Upcoming Economic Data:
<ul>
<li>The Bureau of Economic Analysis is scheduled to release the personal income and spending report for June at 8:30 a.m. EDT. Economists, on average, expect personal income and spending to rise 0.4% and 0.3% on a month-over-month basis. This compares to May&#8217;s growth of 0.5% and 0.2%, respectively. The annual rate of the Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE), the Fed&#8217;s preferred measure of inflation, is projected to remain at 2.6%, unchanged from the May reading. On a month-over-month basis, the personal consumption expenditure index may have increased by 0.1% compared to flat performance in May.</li>
<li>The University of Michigan will release the final consumer sentiment index for July at 10 a.m. EDT. The flash reading released in mid-July came in at 66, down from 68.2 in June. The report also comprises key inflation expectation readings.</li>

Charter now expects full year 2024 capital expenditures to total approximately&nbsp;$12.0 billion, a decrease from Charter&#39;s previously expected range of between&nbsp;$12.2 billion&nbsp;and&nbsp;$12.4 billion. The decrease reflects lower Internet and video customer net additions, including the impact of the end of the ACP, which drives lower CPE and capitalized installation costs. Charter continues to expect line extensions capital expenditures of approximately&nbsp;$4.5 billion&nbsp;and network evolution spend of approximately&nbsp;$1.6 billion, compared to&nbsp;$4.0 billion&nbsp;and&nbsp;$0.9 billion, respectively, in 2023. The actual amount of capital expenditures in 2024 will depend on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the pace of Charter&#39;s network evolution and expansion initiatives, supply chain timing and growth rates in Charter&#39;s residential and commercial businesses.

Charter Communications's Options Frenzy: What You Need to Know

CABO

CMCSA

Shares of telecom stocks are trading lower in sympathy with Verizon Communications after the company reported worse-than-expected Q2 revenue results.

About <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39769910/goldman-sachs-q2-earnings-revenue-and-eps-beat-investment-banking-fees-up-21-hikes-dividend">14% of the S&amp;P 500 companies have reported their June quarter earnings</a> and the blended earnings growth rate for the companies constituting the broader index remains healthy. The coming week will see the official start of the tech reporting season, which could potentially decide the fate of the market, which has seen a steep pullback in the recent week.
The Week That Was: The tech earnings season had a modest start last week with the earnings report from chip-equipment maker ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>). The stock slumped about 16%, dragged by its weak third-quarter outlook and geopolitical concerns surrounding the China chip ban. Netflix, Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) guidance disappointed investors, but with sell-side analysts raving over the results, the stock did not get hammered.
Investors cheered earnings reports from the remaining big banks, namely Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) and Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>). A rebound in investment banking business and strong trading revenue helped the banks shore up their topline.
Of these companies, 80% reported earnings per share above estimates compared to the five-year average of 77%, said FactSet in its latest earnings insight <a href="https://advantage.factset.com/hubfs/Website/Resources%20Section/Research%20Desk/Earnings%20Insight/EarningsInsight_071924.pdf">report.</a> The average upside is about 5.5%, which, however, is below the five-year average of 8.6%.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-tech-stocks">Best Tech Stocks Right Now</a>
Earnings Trend: The blended earnings growth rate for the S&amp;P 500 companies for the second quarter is currently estimated at 9.7%, up from 9.1% in the previous week, FactSet noted. If the estimate is hit, the actual growth rate for the quarter will mark the highest year-over-year rate reported since the fourth quarter of 2021, it added. The second quarter will also likely mark the fourth consecutive quarter of growth.
Eight of the qq S&amp;P 500 sectors are expected to report year-over-year earnings growth, with four, namely communication services, healthcare, IT, and financials, likely reporting double-digit earnings growth. On the other hand, three sectors will likely report earnings declines, led by the materials sector.
The Week Ahead: The unfolding week will see earnings reports from 138 S&amp;P 500 companies, including seven Dow 30 components, Factset report said. The earnings slate for the week includes companies from the telecom, auto, steel, chip, homebuilding, defense, airline and tech industries.
Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Alphabet, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) are among the closely watched copmanies, given their heavy weightings in the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq indices. Tesla is widely expected to report a sharp year-over-year decline in its earnings per share from 91 cents to 62 cents, while revenue may have seen a much more modest 0.80% decline to $24.73 billion. The greater impact on the bottom line comes from the price cuts that Elon Musk&#8216;s company has relied on to push volume in a challenging demand environment.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39810457/as-tesla-stock-bounces-back-fund-manager-says-elon-musk-led-company-offers-good-set">Analysts and fund managers are optimistic</a> after the company reported a deliveries beat for the quarter. They also expect an inflection in the second-half of the year.
Alphabet&#8217;s earnings are important because it is the first among the AI-levered mega-cap companies to release its quarterly results, which might set the tempo for the earnings from the rest in the space. 
The stock market took a hit last week as major indices retreated from their record highs.The Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), an index that tracks the performance of the Nasdaq 100 Index, ended Friday&#8217;s session down 0.89% to $475.24, according to Benzinga Pro data. The ETF is trading off its record close of $502.96 reached on July 10. The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) fell 0.66% on Friday before closing at $548.99.
