U.S. stock futures fell on Wednesday after scaling fresh records in Tuesday&#8217;s session. The futures of all four benchmark indices were trading lower in the premarket.
President Donald Trump, on Tuesday, announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on auto imports, along with tariffs on pharmaceuticals and semiconductor chips.
The auto tariffs are expected to take effect by April 2, based on a report from his cabinet. Tariffs on pharmaceuticals and chips will also start at 25% or higher, with increases over the year. Trump did not specify a start date, allowing manufacturers time to establish U.S. factories to avoid the tariffs.
The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 4.56%, while the two-year yield was at 4.30%. According to the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>, there is a 97.5% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged for the March meeting.

Insights From Analysts
Ryan Detrick, the chief market strategist at Carson Research, pointed out that the S&amp;P 500 scaled its second all-time high of 2025 on Tuesday.
This was the 1,243rd record high over the 17,176 trading days since 1957 when the gauge increased to having 500 stocks.
Processing this data, Detrick highlighted that the S&amp;P 500 hits a new all-time high about once every three weeks.

<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">And with that we have the 2nd all-time high of 2025 for the S&amp;P 500. Since 1957 (when it become 500 stocks) this is 1,243 ATHs out of 17,176 trading days. In other words, a new ATH happens about once every 3 wks. New highs happen, congrats to the investors who remembered. <a href="https://t.co/D30va9bi5Y">pic.twitter.com/D30va9bi5Y</a>

He also addressed a very important question, "Should you buy when stocks are all-time highs?" in one of his X posts.
Detrick said, "Don&#8217;t be scared of new highs". He substantiated his claims by adding that the index is usually up 71% of the times, a year after scaling an all-time high.

Talking about the fresh record, Nathan Peterson, director of derivatives analysis at the <a href="https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/stock-market-update-open">Schwab Center</a> for Financial Research said: &#8220;It seems that stocks can maintain a bullish bias provided the economic data and earnings growth estimates hold up and yields on the 10-year Treasury note remain below the mid-January high of 4.8%." 
According to economist Jeremy Siegel, despite the uncertainties, "The stock market continues to perform well, particularly in the tech sector, even as leadership has broadened beyond last year's AI-driven rally."
Professor of finance at the University of Pennsylvania, Siegel also added that "Tesla took a hit on competition from China's BYD, now the world's largest EV maker. Nvidia was hit after the DeepSeek news, but overall, the tech leaders have remained resilient."

Fluor Q4: Earnings Miss, Backlog Decline, Leadership Shake-Up And More

Fluor shares are trading lower after the company missed Q4 earnings and revenue estimates.

Outlook
We are not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP net earnings or U.S. GAAP earnings per share, or a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EPS guidance, because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty all of the components required to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable efforts, which are uncertain and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional information.
In consideration of the timing of new awards and the pace of execution on the existing backlog, we are establishing an adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2025 of $575 to $675 million and adjusted EPS of $2.25 to $2.75 per share. Estimates for 2025 assume a tax rate of 30 to 35% percent. We will share our view on the markets over the next four years at our upcoming strategy update event on April 2nd.
Adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance exclude items similar to those outlined in the reconciliation table at the end of this release.

Fluor 2025 Guidance: Expects Adjusted EBITDA of $575M-$675M And Adjusted EPS Of $2.25-$2.75 Vs. $2.95 Est.

This is a 29.41 percent decrease over earnings of $0.68 per share from the same period last year. The company reported quarterly sales of $4.260 billion which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $4.420 billion by 3.62 percent. This is a 11.52 percent increase over sales of $3.820 billion the same period last year.

Insights From Analysts
Ryan Detrick, the chief market strategist at Carson Research pointed out that seven out of the total broad 11 sectors have outperformed the S&amp;P 500 index on a year-to-date basis.
&#8220;We&#8217;ve been pounding the table for broadening out and we think this will continue,&#8221; he added.

The S&amp;P 500 has surged 60% in the past two years, a significant increase. However, according to Bravos Research historically, similar rapid gains have often been followed by substantial market downturns.
The downturns have occurred three out of the last four times after such a surge was witnessed. Bravos highlights that one instance did lead to a rapid and dramatic market rise, calling it a &#8220;melt-up.&#8221;
The question, now is whether the current situation will follow the more common pattern of decline or the rarer &#8220;melt-up&#8221; scenario.

Talking about the economic impact Ed Yardeni in his Market Call blog said, &#8220;So far, Trump&#8217;s tariff turmoil seems to be weighing more on the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and many other emerging markets than on China and most European countries.&#8221;
That could change once reciprocal tariffs are imposed by the U.S. in early April, unless Trump changes his mind, again, added Yardeni.

Earnings Scheduled For February 18, 2025

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed some improvement in the overall market sentiment, with the index in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled mixed on Friday, with the Dow Jones index falling more than 150 points during the session.
However, stocks recorded gains last week, with the S&amp;P 500 gaining around 1.5% and the Dow rising 0.6%. The Nasdaq gained 2.6% during the week.
Traders digested weaker-than-expected retail sales and the potential for peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. Retail sales in the U.S. fell 0.9% month-over-month in January, significantly worse than the anticipated 0.1% drop.
SoundHound AI Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOUN#NASDAQ">SOUN</a>) shares dipped 28% on Friday after Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) disclosed in a 13F filing that it dissolved its stake in the company. Shares of Serve Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SERV#NASDAQ">SERV</a>) tumbled 40% after an amended 13G filing shows Nvidia holds no stake in the company.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with healthcare, consumer staples, and utilities stocks recording losses on Friday. However, information technology and communication services stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 165 points to 44,546.08 on Friday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.01% to 6,114.63, while the Nasdaq Composite jumped 0.41% to 20,026.77 during Friday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Medtronic plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MDT#NYSE">MDT</a>), Occidental Petroleum Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>), and Fluor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLR#NYSE">FLR</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 44.5, the index was in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Friday, versus a prior reading of 43.3.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.
